    Is she your wife, mother, sister?

    Please tell her that pecking away on her mobile while driving on a very icy road is not really clever. Why do I have to share the road with dangerous people like this?

    Taken this morning at 9:33 on the R741 just north of Castlebridge, Wexford.

    Why isn't it right? If it was your mother, sister etc, would you not want the chance to possibly save their life?

    You've no right to accuse her on a public forum like this by displaying both license plates and face. If you're that concerned report it to the Gardai...

    And so the first course of action is to report here and not to the Gardai with the "evidence" ?

    Probably not very clever to be on the mobile phone whilst driving but it seems more than a bit dramatic when you say "on a very icy road".

    I'm only describing the conditions. The road was very icy. My temperature display was showing -3 at the time.

    OK well, we'll just hope she doesn't plough into you then. I'd rather see her stopped before she does.

    The Gardai will do that, a random bunch of ppl on an internet forum won't.

    The Gardaí won't sit around drinking tea and eating HobNobs while taking turns at guessing the digits of the reg number, bouncing back and forth from Cartell to check.

    There really should be a Driving Shame site.

    Its a Law that a large amount of people dont care about. I could count 5 to 6 cars on the M7 one way each day where the drivers have phones to there ears.

    An Undercover car on the M7 would rake in the cash.

    Because the Guards would laugh you out of the Station if you did

    (Or more likely they'd pretend to take you seriously & then piss themselves as soon as you're out the door)

    Yes, you're probably right. And that's a good part of what's wrong with the driving standard on our roads. A professional police force would take it seriously.

    Maybe it was -3 on the temperature display but I highly doubt it the road was very icy. The roads would of been well salted.
