A driver was caught on camera allegedly attempting a 'crash for cash' scam before fleeing when he realised he was being filmed.
Dashcam footage shows a silver Volkswagen Golf suddenly pull into the left hand lane before the driver appears to slam on the brakes, causing the van travelling behind him to shunt his vehicle.
Service engineer Ian Bell, who was driving the three tonne vehicle as part of his job, can then be seen getting out and assessing the damage to the car's bumper as he is confronted by the VW driver.
