Former Leo Faradkar said that the death of his grandfather in a road accident, which encouraged him 20 years ago to introduce more road safety laws as a project.
In a road safety event in Galway on Friday, Mr. Faradkar recalled the tragedy of his grandfather Tom Hawal, a passenger who was killed at the age of 82 in a fatal movement accident in Carlo in 2005.
Mr. Faradkar said: “My uncle was driving my car from Dublin to Dengvan where they lived. On the Carlo road there was a loose horse. He hit the windshield of the car. My uncle was slightly injured, but my grandfather did not survive.”
Mr. Faradkar was a novice doctor in Navan at the time, but he said that the accident encouraged him to provide road safety legislation when he became the Minister of Transport in 2011 and then Twicic.
He was also affected by the reality of work in hospitals and emergency departments, where he dealt with the victims of deadly accidents and those who suffered from injuries that changed life on the roads.
“The truth is that there are a large number of families in Ireland who lost someone on the road, or who have been changing life. I know they are not comparable, but many people died on our roads in Ireland more than died in problems, for example,” said Mr. Faradkar.
Dublin West TD was talking at a road safety event at the Galloway Bay Hotel in Sallal on Friday.
It was organized by the PARC Road Safety Group to welcome a new law that enters into force on Monday, which requires car drivers to provide the unique driving license number for their insurance company.
“This means that people who are excluded from driving will not be able to obtain insurance,” explained by Mr. Faradkar.
“Unfortunately, what is happening now is that some people who are excluded from driving in Ireland have returned to driving next week because insurance companies and Gardaí do not know that they have been excluded from driving,” he added.
Susan Gray, who founded Park, after her husband’s death in the traffic accident in 2004, was attributed to Mr. Faradkar to apply for the new law as Twicic.
However, all legislation will not be enacted next Monday, due to issues related to information and communication technology systems – Parc called the current minister to transfer DARRAGH O’Brien and Jim O’Callaghan Minister of Jim O’Callaghan to set a deadline for his full implementation.
Aceing Reed, whose cousin Karl Robertson, 28, died in Artan, Dublin, said in March 2017, after a car driver who was excluded from the driving was required that there was a need for full implementation of this law.
“Karl was walking in running and beating and running and left to die on the side of the road. After one year we discovered the person who killed Karl with three indicators at that time, and a number of previous road traffic crimes. This is why we are passionate about this new legislation and ensuring his work effectively.”
She said that the solution to information and communication technology problems would allow information in the actual time about the information of drivers’ insecurity at the checkpoints.
Ms. Reed said: “The law has a ruling that allows insurance companies and Gardaí to access data in an actual time about the lack of qualified, but unfortunately and frustrated, it has not been started because the relevant information and communication technology systems have not been updated. The government had years to prepare for this new law, but they are running them.”
Mr. Faradkar agreed to Mr. O’Brien and Mr. Oakhan, who must set a final date for resolving information and communications technology issues and enacting full legislation.
Mr. Faradkar said: “Without the deadlines, things can be” progress “,” continuous “, and” under review “for a long time.
