Hed be better off making sure hes doing his own job right - I reckon hes achieved very little in the rule as RSA chairman quite frankly. what a muppet (Gay Byrne)

Old diesel wrote: » Also - why would traffic corps be under fire for the increasing road deaths - cutbacks and general poor approach by officialdom to road safety is to blame there I think. Traffic corps can only deal with what they can see going on in front of them - they cant deal with some nutcase pulling off a dangerous overtake - a mile behind or ahead of the traffic corps car. Think one thing that could be done in the line of traffic corps in that regard - is to have decent unmarked cars - preferably stuff that wouldn't normally be associated with Garda cars (Audis etc). If you enter Audi A6 Avant unmarked police cars or something like that in google - and go into images - youd see some nice unmarked Audis. Seen a pic of a lovely silver A4 Avant (2010/11 type model) unmarked - it had the lights lit up in the pics but youd never know it was unmarked with lights off. I only mention Audi as an example - but having unmarked cars could be good - drivers wouldn't know that the car behind them or in front was a Garda car until they are pulled in for driving like a muppet. Just my two cents as an outsider (apologies)

Even see new and old Mondeos with very little evidence on the outside and of course the Skoda Superbs / Land Cruisers / Audis BMW's .... There's a lot of stuff available depending on what the powers that be approve - internal politics/requirments Aside from the 'Speed kills' mantra, I'm sure the Collision Investigation boys would have views on what ACTUALLY caused the accident. Sometimes it can be road surface problems / road markings / signage / people texting /using computer etc etc..... Yes, the majority were probably speeding without a seat belt but we need to move on from just 'Speed kills' and outline exactly what other elements can get you killed. As for Gaybo - he nearly crashed into me one day so ...:rolleyes: Yesterday's man

Gardaí foiled an elaborate plan by gunmen to “spring” a violent Limerick criminal from a courthouse in a daring raid, it emerged last night. The plot involved gunmen using motorbikes carrying out an ambush on prison officers at Limerick Circuit Court. Gardaí received information of the plan and a huge security operation was put in place for the court hearing where the criminal was due to be remanded. More than 20 armed detectives, along with members of the Garda Armed Support Unit, took up positions in and around the courthouse when the criminal was brought to court on the day of the planned escape..
