Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Motor Insurance and Uninsured Drivers: Motor Insurers' Bureau of Ireland

Mr. David Fitzgerald:

I am afraid we do not. That is something we would be very interested in. It is something we have asked the Garda for previously but we have not been successful in obtaining that information to date. You see them out and about. I am sure they are active but we do not have those statistics. If we can get them this technology, this would be a great enabler. We see it as an issue for enforcement. If the levels are this high, do we need more enforcement? People must feel they can get away with it if we have this level of uninsured driving. What we can do to empower the Garda to increase enforcement is in everybody's interest.
