It surely does. Similarly, a section on the M7 south of Nenagh is also monitored.
Will Mr. Fitzgerald speak about demographics and the age group that has been identified? I am concerned about a particular age cohort of people who succeeded in remaining on the road by getting successive provisional licences without ever having to do a test. That situation was changed a number of years ago, which caused problems. I know from my work that there are people in their late to mid-70s, and some in their 80s, who cannot insure their cars now because they do not have driver licences as a result of the change. They will never take a test. Has the MIBI data to suggest that X percent of this cohort are within certain categories? Those data would allow for targeted encouragement of those people.
