My mum witnessed the aftermath of a serious collision in donnybrook too. Where is the enforcement? Where are the traffic corps? The roads are just a free for all at the moment and it terrifies me cycling to work.

Those damned automated cars again.

Is the car ok?

In addition to the Garda investigation, does a driver killing a pedestrian trigger an automatic review by TII or another agency to see how to make the junction safer? Shouldn’t it?

Struck by the driver of a car. Wish Irish media would use international reporting standards for incidents involving vehicles and pedestrians/people on bikes. At least you didn't say a collision like some other outlets.

By a driverless car I suppose.
