Ireland is “heading in the wrong direction” when it comes to safety on our roads. That’s according to Minister Jack Chambers who was speaking at an EU Road Safety conference in Dublin this morning.
The EU wants to halve road deaths and serious injuries by 2030 with the aim of nearly eliminating them by 2050. But according to Minister Chambers, in Ireland we’re “definitely” going in the wrong direction "after many years of progress".
