A number of people were on the footpath waiting to cross the street towards the town centre at the time.
CCTV footage shows a car mounting the footpath and demolishing a sign before going up on two wheels.
It finally comes to a halt just millimetres from the pedestrians.
Gardaí say the driver of the car was taken to hospital for observation but was discharged last evening.
