I am informed by the Garda authorities that enforcement of speed limits is conducted across all Garda divisions with a view to ensuring compliance by all drivers. I am further informed that statistics are not compiled in such a way as to distinguish between bus drivers and other categories of drivers prosecuted for exceeding speed limits and would require an unjustifiable deployment of Garda time and resources to compile.
