With regard to the speed vans we see, not only on motorways, is the Garda National Roads Policing Bureau able to correlate its data, to see where the fatalities happen, for there to be known spots for speeding? A very high percentage of 29% of fatal road traffic collisions were reported to have had speeding as a contributory factor. When the Garda National Roads Policing Bureau does its forensic work, is it able to collate those data to show that there is a direct correlation between spots where there is speeding and those where accidents are happening in which there are fatalities?
