Road Traffic Offences: An Garda Síochána
10:40 am
Mr. John Twomey:
Absolutely and the legislation is very welcome. It is an indication of the changing behaviour of road users and the updating and upgrading of mobile phones and technology. It is no coincidence the greatest increase in enforcement is with regard to the use of mobile phones on roads. It is a problem and a challenge. The new legislation is welcomed by An Garda Síochána.
