Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Road Safety Strategy 2021-30: Discussion

Mr. Sean O'Reardon:

Originally, the vans were put in locations where accidents happened. There was a weighting factor. To get a van in an area, we had criteria of up to ten points. A fatal collision was nine points. A serious injury was six points to eight points. We got a zone based on the weighting factors. That was the original way, based on the analysis from our analysis service in terms of accidents. We have a map with the exact number of accidents throughout the country. All the locations are on our website for people to be aware of them in advance.
