The Victoria Police have unveiled a startling video capturing a car’s close call with pedestrians, highlighting the importance of road safety. The incident involved a speeding vehicle that barely missed five individuals on foot.

Earlier this month, the event unfolded on the Nepean Highway in Mornington. A red Mazda 121 was detected by a speed camera as it zoomed through a red light, disregarding traffic laws.

The car was recorded traveling at 93 km/h in an area designated for a maximum speed of 70 km/h.

As the Mazda surged through the intersection, five pedestrians were in the midst of crossing the road, unaware of the approaching danger.

The video footage reveals the harrowing moment when the Mazda narrowly missed colliding with some of the pedestrians.

Thankfully, no one was injured. Some of the pedestrians managed to capture footage of the speeding vehicle on their phones as it vanished into the night.

Police still have not located the driver of the vehicle, and have released the footage in the hope the pedestrians or any other witnesses to the incident will come forward.

The Mazda had a registration of 1WG60E, and after the incident it continued driving in a southbound direction towards Dromana.

Anyone who witnessed the incident or has dashcam footage is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
