Bernard Durkan (Kildare North, Fine Gael)

The Minister has been drawn enough already. I have raised the matter of the numerous accident black spots around the country on many occasions. The Minister has said we will have cameras that will photograph the accidents. This is crazy. Why do we not have some proposals to improve the roads at these known accident black spots where accidents occur again and again? Why does he not examine the roads and do something about them?

There is a junction in my constituency where 19 people have died. Is the Minister implying that this is on account of bad driving on somebody's part?
