Shameless Garda PR blitz links road deaths to visibility issues in cases where there is no link

Shameless Garda PR blitz links road deaths to visibility issues in cases where there is no link
Comment & Analysis: Sadly, I have to start this article by saying, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this article says 'don't be visible'. Lights are a legal requirement, and it'd be a good start if the Gardai enforced them, and people walking should take steps to be visible on unlit roads. I get it, nobody likes it when people are walking on unlit roads in the dark without lights and wearing dark clothing, and it's annoying when some cyclists think they are ninjas.

"Let's enjoy the Christmas shopping this year but next year, let Black Friday become Green Friday," writes MEP Barry Andrews in The Journal.

"People should be able to enjoy Christmas shopping and get good deals. We’re just not getting the balance right at the moment."

Snapshot of my promotional emails today.

Black Friday is a total scam. You do not need to buy anything today, unless you absolutely need it.

A lot of these 'deals' are completely manipulated.

Besides, whatever it is, will be 'on sale' again in a month or two.

Today, I saw a driver overtake a stopped bus and plough through a pedestrian crossing. He beeped three times as he sped though. The beeping was to warn people because, as he had overtaken a bus, he had zero visibility of who was about to step out onto the crossing.

But sure, more hi-vis, everyone
👀 Can you see me now?

The importance of visibility on our roads cannot be understated, particularly for vulnerable road users including pedestrians, cyclists, e-scooter drivers and motorcyclists.

'Young people don't drink anymore'

Eh, half of UCD is completely smashed right now. 30 plus, very pissed kids in Christmas jumpers just got off this bus. Being that drunk at 2:15 is a rookie mistake. They'll learn 🤣🤣🤣
Today is UCD Christmas Day. Now one of the biggest days of the year for students. Run in to Xmas exams starts tomorrow

Why is everyone wondering around UCD in Christmas gear?? Some of you must be parents. EXPLAIN, EXPLAIN TO THE OLD WOMAN.

it's hard to think of another situation where you can kill someone and essentially get away with it. driving 25% over the speed limit, on the wrong side of the road – and she's allowed back behind the wheel before this guy's poor kids are finished with school

Absolutely none of which matters when motorists speed, play on their phones, drive drunk/drugged/tired, or simply believe they own the road.

My first email this morning is from a resident about motorists speeding through pedestrian lights near homes, schools, a church and a library.

It's constant.

Hot take maybe but I actually don’t give a shit about benefit fraud.

I give a shit about multimillionaires and billionaires existing and not paying tax on their actual wealth.

The past aside, do people never consider that we are not immune from war, from attacks. There is no reason AT ALL why this could not happen to us and that we would need to flee this country. But, there is a weirdly superior, privileged view that this is, and will always be, a one way system. Nope.
