Video: Dashcam footage captures terrifying near-collision on blind corner

Shocking dashcam footage captured the nail-biting moment a Toyota ute came very close to a head-on collision while overtaking on a blind corner. 

The footage was captured along State Highway 73 near Porters Pass at the weekend and shows the ute overtaking a long line of traffic on a blind corner.

The terrifying footage shows the ute hooning down a steep stretch of road, before swinging back into the left lane as a vehicle approached - coming very close to crashing head-on.  

Not long after, the ute swings out from the left lane again, continuing to overtake the line of traffic held up by a caravan ahead. 

A police spokesperson said they received a report of traffic offending on West Coast Rd, Castle Hill, at about 3:35pm on Saturday 

The spokesperson said police are in the "initial phase of assessment".
