It's a vintage tractor, can't go fast. People don't have any business to drive 100 km/h on a small 1 car country road. If they respect people living on the road, I wouldn't have to visit my neighbor 6 km away in my vintage tractor that only goes 15 km/h
There is no speed limit, and people drive what they want in the country anyways, that's why you have so many crashes and fatalities on small roads, people don't have a clue how to drive on them.Have you spoken to a local TD or the County Council or the Road Safety authority about how to get the speed limit reevaluated?
Have you spoken to the guards to inform them that speed limits are regularly being broken and ask if they can take measures to prevent this from occurring ?
Any update on the woman involved in this?
From speaking with one of the crew at the scene, that poor misfortunate woman has severe leg injuriesAny update on the woman involved in this?
Indeed, at least and hopefully she will recover just hope the poor woman does not have long term issues / injuries.Poor woman, hope she makes a full recovery
It is alarming the number of crashes occurring each day.
That cork safety alerts app is very good in fairness
Very well saidIndeed, at least and hopefully she will recover just hope the poor woman does not have long term issues / injuries.
As for the standard of driving, it is gone to fhe absolute pits.
Indicators now seem to be an inconvenience to operate, the running of Amber and just gone red traffic lights perfectly acceptable.
Dare and drive at 50 in a 50 and someone will be on your back bumper.
The same with 80, do that on a dual carriageway and everyone will pass you by.
Just today as an example, I had reason to head up the M8, there is resurfacing works between Glanmire North and Watergrasshill, both lanes are open as normal but the top course of tarmac is removed and that rough surface is exposed.
The speed limit along that stretch is 80 currently and is well indicated at regular intervals.
I was in the left lane, there was a car in front of me and 2 coaches in front of him, all travelling at 80.
There was a constant stream of vehicles in the outer lane travelling in excess of that limit.
I wonder how effective the grip is on that surface if someone needed to brake hard ?
Check out doing the 60 & 30 limits in Dunkettle, its a joke.
All that and that very selfish thing of not letting people out of side roads etc is also rampant .
I have to say I miss driving the roads during the pandemic it was great.
