I have an issue with that. Sometimes, I see the vans. A company has been hired. I think GoSafe is the company that does it. I have an issue, in that, the vans are parked in the most obscure places where they are trying to get people who are just doing 30 or 40 mph. If this is supposed to be "go safe", is it not about people speeding in a 100 km/h zone or something like that as opposed to people who are driving at a slow rate anyway? Is it just a method of getting resources into An Garda Síochána?
