Well it will be up to the defence to cast doubt, the only thing is you seem to be presuming that the OP is the only witness, I would guess there are a few more to back up their story. Given Garda reluctance to investigate matters of this type it seems to me that they must have a very solid case.This seems like a strange case to be going to court.
If I was on the defence I would point out that there is no way of knowing without doubt that it was the same car that you saw 10 minutes later (when you first noted the reg) and not a similar one.

...no way of knowing without doubt
...car cutting the corner and well over a continuous white line on my side...
Dunno if there’re any points for driving on the hard shoulder on the other side of the road.
When I went into the station to make my statement the Garda said exactly the same.
I said that when I saw the incident, I noticed that the badge (ie make) was the same as my own, but the model I did not recognise and that the colour was very unusual, a green/grey/blue-ish metallic finish.
Ten minutes later, I saw this very distinctive car again, and noted the reg.
“That’ll do”, she said, and took my statement.
How does this prove the car was involved in a dodgy overtaking manoeuvre ?
Because it was a very unusual car, with very unusual colouring, there is no doubt in my mind whatsoever that it was the same car.How does this prove the car was involved in a dodgy overtaking manoeuvre ?
