I dont think there is any provision in legislation or the rules of road for use of hazard lights in this way.I... put on my hazard light for a second to warn him.

I know, but I do it now and again if a driver is right up my a*se and making it difficult for me to drive properly. Its better than braking suddenly as some people do, or getting aggressive with them.

Putting on your hazard lights for a non hazardous situation is on the same level as the above. As a driver you have to be prepared for all and every possible sitiation, not have an equally crazy response at the ready when you are unhappy with how another driver is driving.
All you got to do is ring the Garda Traffic lines and once you get the registration number of the bully the Gardai (although not prosecuting there and then) can record the person and vehicle for future observation.

I got done for speeding a few months ago, and am now particularly careful on the stretch in question. Last week I was doing exactly the speed limit on it with a Dublin Bus up my behind, flashing his headlights in through my back windscreen and trying to bully me to go faster. We came level with each other where I was taking a turn at lights and the driver shook his fist at me? What was that all about? I wasnt gonna speed and risk another ticket because he was behind schedule!
well, your obviously not a Judge, work for rte, are a politician or are a well known sports personality !!!!

Isn't pretty much every court case a case of one person's word against someone else's?Last time I reported a driver for dangerous driving I did so in a station, the Guard was more concerned that his order of chicken sezchuan be taken correctly and wrote down the details I gave him on a scrap of paper and then said there was nothing he could do because it was going to be my word against someone elses.

I think he meant that there were no witnesses or evidence, cctv etc.. literally just me saying 'He did a dangerous thing' and the other driver saying 'No I didnt'.
But I did think they would take note of the reg plate. They didnt.
