Cyclists

Nah, Ireland is bizarrely low in European terms:

It's an old graph but Ireland didn't even fit on the graph, to quote:
'The lowest (not shown here) was Ireland with a mere 0.2."

I can guarantee that GB figure is higher, I seriously doubt the Ireland figure is materially higher in that time
What is the relevance of these data? Do those cameras operate on the basis of tracking your movements around the national road network?
The focus on putting this camera network on motorways is off point by way of road safety - 7% of road fatalities between 2020 and 2022 occurred on motorways. About a quarter of deaths were on urban roads and yet this is where Eamon Ryan is also on his high horse: motorists breaking red lights.

 
Moreover, cameras are going to be mounted on traffic lights throughout the country so as to fine the driver of any car that breaks a red light (no mention of cyclists doing the same).
Cameras to be placed on national roads throughout the country to check that speed limits are not being breached on an 'average speed' basis.
In short, a move towards total surveillance of motorists' every move.
or pedestrians who cross when they feel like it!!!

Good idea and about time. Those that don't break the law will have nothing to worry about.

It is a good thing, that arse holes who are incapable of stopping at red lights might be deterred what about the cyclists and pedestrians ?
