Road Safety: Motion.
I received some figures from the NRA a few years ago. Only 3% of all vehicles registered in Ireland are heavy goods vehicles but they are involved in 10% of fatal accidents. That is a serious issue. Will the Minister, instead of basking in the congratulations of his own party, consider asking the Garda Commissioner if the law on speed limits for trucks is being enforced with the same vigour the Garda Commissioner seems to believe the law on speeding in general is being enforced?
