Has An Garda Síochána thought out a solution to it? I am looking at it from a defence solicitor's point of view. An argument could be made as to whether a person was 90 m or 100 m from the entrance. How can that be defined clearly? Who measures that? In the case the 50 km/h speed limit, it is clearly marked where the zone starts and finishes. I am wondering whether An Garda Síochána has put forward any proposals as regards how the line will be clearly defined.
