Fugitive dad Travis Decker was filmed on a police dashboard camera just three days before he allegedly killed his three young daughters, according to a report.

Decker, 32, slammed into a car at a red light in Wenatchee, Washington, on May 27, and begged the motorist he crashed into “not to call the police,” local King 5 reported.

The nearly 20-minute dash cam video showed Decker leaning up against his pick-up truck and staring at the responding officer as he completed the police report.

The unidentified motorist told the outlet that Decker, a homeless Army veteran, “looked almost intimidating to me” when he told the soon-to-be fugitive that he had called police.

“I could tell he was not in his full senses,” the driver added, noting Decker asked odd questions during the accident report.

Police said Decker was also in a traffic accident on May 4, in which the accused killer rear-ended a Honda CRV and sped away.

The driver of the Honda tailed Decker’s truck and provided his license plate number to police, according to the report.

The May 27 encounter with Decker ended with a visibly uncomfortable nine-second long handshake during which the motorist attempted to wrestle his hand away from the fugitive dad.

Decker reportedly repeatedly asked the man if he was “going to be OK” during that awkward exchange, the report stated.

The other driver was shocked when he recognized Decker’s face three days later, plastered across the news.

“I had to stop what I was doing and sit down,” he told King 5.

On May 30, Decker allegedly zip-tied plastic bags over the heads of daughters Paityn, 9, Evelyn, 8, and Olivia 5, suffocating them to death just hours after picking them up for planned visitation, according to authorities.

The girls’ bodies were found on June 2 — bound at the wrists and necks with zip ties near Rock Island Campground not far from Decker’s abandoned truck.

“I truly hope that the legacy of the girls’ lives lives on in everyone’s heart forever,” grieving mom Whitney Decker said at an event held on their behalf last month.

“They were incredible,” she added through tears.

Authorities are still searching for Decker — and are not certain that the accused fiend is still breathing.

“At this time, there is no certain evidence that Decker remains alive or in this area,” the Kittitas County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement last month.

“Seemingly strong early leads gave way to less convincing proofs over the last two weeks of searching. Still, we can’t and won’t quit this search; Paityn, Evelyn, and Olivia Decker deserve justice. And Decker remains a danger to the public as long as he’s at large,” the statement said.

US Marshals called off the hunt in Idaho after a false-alarm sighting in Sawtooth National Forest — where a man who looked like Decker was reportedly “exhibiting odd behavior” on an ATV trail on Fourth of July weekend.
