Man critical after Cork car crash

The driver of the car has been taken to hospital with serious injuries.

A MAN IN his 20s has been taken to hospital with serious injuries following a car crash in county Cork.

Gardaí say he is in a critical condition at Cork University Hospital.

The single-car collision occurred on the R576 Kanturk to Mallow Road at about 12.55am today.

The Kanturk to Mallow Road from Bannagh Cross to the junction with the Mallow/Killarney Road is closed to allow the forensic team to complete its examination. Diversions are in place.

The injured man was the sole occupant of the car.

Open thread: Is your local road as bad as this one?

    Have you read the original article? There is nothing to suggest any racist motive for the lights execpt some comments on an internet forum. This whole thing is one of the most laughable pieces of reportage I have ever seen. And it’s not like it’s been a slow news week.
