Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport

Road Safety: Discussion

2:00 am

Dr. Shawna Coxon:

From an enforcement perspective, the Senator is right that it is challenging. At times, we still do speeding and vehicle checks on rural roads. The Senator is aware it is challenging, particularly depending on where they are. What helps us from an enforcement perspective is the reduction in speed limits across the country and we welcome that. From our perspective that has helped, but enforcement remains individual gardaí going out and doing enforcement where they can in those spaces.
