    Another death on a rural road while the speed vans are collecting millions of euro on dual carriageways around Dublin. Priorities ??????

    The jokeshop speed vans on dual carriageways at 60 kmph are pure money-grabbing exercises. They should be out near dangerous bends with speed checks or on the M50 doing something about the Middle-lane-only brigade and the unrelenting tail-gaters in the overtaking lane.

    May the poor lady rest in peace.
