Clare Haulier Insists Young And Old Must Be Educated On Rules Of The Road

Clare FM

A Clare-based haulier insists education at both ends of the age spectrum must be a pivotal part of the solution when it comes to road safety. New RSA data indicates a quarter of drivers involved in fatal road collisions over the past five years were driving for work. Heavy goods vehicles made up 11% of vehicles involved in deadly crashes and in most cases, either the driver of the other vehicle or a pedestrian was killed. Ennis-based Irish Road Haulage Association spokesperson Eugene Drennan believes older people should be offered refreshers courses on the rules of the road.
