There was a very good debate in the House recently about road safety. At the time it seemed that the introduction of penalty points was working. Last weekend has proved how dangerous the roads are and how our safety on the roads is held by a very delicate thread. I believe the Minister's heart is in the right place and I would like him to be invited to the House. Senator Browne has proposed a debate on penalty points particularly in regard to insurance. We must do all we can to reduce the horrific incidence of carnage on the roads. The Minister is capable of doing something and we should encourage him to do so.
