“Studies conducted in Sweden and Norway have shown that safety cameras can reduce fatal collisions by 38% to 49%, and a London School of Economics Study found fatal collisions decreased by 58 to 68% within 500 metres of safety cameras.” - An Garda Síochána. So why not more cameras?

Dear Co. Wexford councillors. The reason why speed ramps are necessary is that despite numerous An Garda Síochána pleadings, urging & imploring drivers to slow down, many simply carry on regardless. 🤦‍♀️ WHAT ARE 🫵 non-populist solutions?! LET’S HEAR IT.. 🤷‍♀️ independent.ie/regionals/wexf…

The #Portal4Cycling will be rolled out at end of 2025 or start of 2026 at latest. This will really give teeth to Dangerous Overtaking of a Cyclist legislation. It will simplify the process enormously. #Cycling #RoadSafety

Another bank holiday = another ‘appeal’ to drivers 🤦‍♂️ Even An Garda Síochána knows how useless appealing to drivers is.. Enforcement-fines-penalty points without apologies and you’re half way there.. x.com/gardatraffic/s…

irishcycle.com/2025/05/29/ive… I’ve nothing against newspaper columnists, but… do they all have to write about cycling? – IrishCycle.com It’s wonderful to have IrishCycle.com calling out some of the nonsense that some journalists seem happy to roll out about people who cycle.

Excessive and inappropriate speed is a dangerous behaviour on our roads. When you’re going too fast, you can’t keep up with the road. Let's slow down and save lives. #VisionZero #DriveSafe
