Mr. Michael Finn:

Deputy Troy described a driver being on the telephone and driving an articulated lorry. This is where we have to work with the industry. In today's world, a truck costs €100,000 or more. I cannot understand why drivers do not have a hands-free unit. It is inexcusable that a driver would have a telephone to his ear. This is where we have to work with the industry. We must ensure those in the industry do not skimp on the extra cost of putting in the equipment to facilitate drivers. It is inexcusable that such behaviour takes place.
