    With sounding to morbid, this is a site I just discovered that some of you might find interesting. Great work.

    Thats an exellent site, one thing its already taught me is that contary to what most think, Dublin is dangerous! Just cos traffic is largely stuck in an urban crawl it does'nt mean deaths don't happen. Wexford is'nt a happy place either.

    I presume that many of the fatalities in Dublin are pedestrians. Even though traffic in Dublin is very stop-start, it can move quite quickly between the lights. This is particularly dangerous in wet weather on slippery city streets.

    ...and when idiots frequently just waltz out in front of you in the belief that the car can always magically stop!
