Road Safety: Motion.

Brendan Ryan (Labour)
I accept that Senator Dooley has a limited opinion of my abilities, but I know the difference between being on a train and driving a car.
I have begun to believe that statistic of one in 1,400 is a fact. My journeys have been speedier than I expected. I thought that once the penalty points system was introduced everybody who needed their driving licence to do their job would be particularly conscientious. I thought all the heavy goods vehicles would travel at 50 mph, the legal limit.
