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.

Geataí busanna. Sin leigheas don chóras tinn tráchta i nGaillimh ach níl éinne ag caint futhu. #BusConnects

Is féidir linn go leor airgid agus am a chaitheamh ar réiteach iomlán ach an píosa is éifeachtaí den scéim ná na geataí busanna.

“The report points out that telling people to move more, is not enough when the design of our towns, cities and transport infrastructure conspires against that.”

“If you want to get more people to make the move to active travel, you have to build safe, modern, connected networks."

Navan Cycling Initiative - spot on.

Thus is such a brilliant opportunity for Meath CoCo to avail of much sought after funding.

When asked how people like to travel, workshop participants cut car use by half: from 37% to 19% while bus use tripled. A great insight from the recent co-creation workshop on how conversations can shape smarter, greener mobility 🇮🇪 @cyclingincork.bsky.social @irishcyclingcmpn.bsky.social

"But everyone knows what I mean when I say "bike"!

While that may be true, when we talk about 'bikes' it's easy for many people to forget about those who need to use non-standard cycles such as trikes, recumbents and tandems.
