The Garda Siochána will conduct a national Slow Down day with speed enforcement operation for 24 hours from 7am on Friday 24th October.
The initiative is part of a series to try to promote road safety and to reduce the number of accidents on our roads.
The purpose of national slow down day is to alert drivers again to the dangers of speeding and to act as a deterrent to driving at excessive speeds. The Gardaí intend to put a high visibility enforcement activities into place as well as the use of the national and local media. The Gardaí have pointed out that 2013 saw the first increase in road deaths for the first time since 2006 with 190 people losing their lives on Irish roads.
Assistant Garda Commissioner John Twomey seeks support for the initiative and has stated that ‘as a general rule a 1% reduction in average speed will bring about a 4% reduction in fatal collisions’.
In addition to the above, it is intended that Garda personnel will man helpdesks at prominent locations and offer advice on road safety as well as distributing road safety leaflets. Drivers will also be asked to turn on their dipped head lights to show support and increase their visibility. Ireland had historically lagged behind other developed countries in terms of road injury and death rates but matters have improved since then.
Data and best practice policies are increasingly shared and compared amongst countries with bodies such as the World Health Organisation providing co-ordination (see infographic below).

Carmody Moran recently helped me with the sale of my home. Niamh, Caila and all the team were fantastic to deal with from start to finish. They explained everything so clearly, were extremely professional, efficient and always responded promptly. On top of that they were just such a friendly group of people to deal with. I would highly recommend them.

We recently closed on a first time house purchase and we were very pleased with how the whole process was handled at Carmody Moran. They always responded clearly and promptly to the many queries I had along the way and were on the ball with following up issues with the sellers solicitors to keep the process moving.The reason I went with them originally over other options was because they gave a very clear breakdown for the charges and the quoted price we were given was transparent and easy to understand compared to other quotes I received.I will definitely use them again if the need arises and recommend them to my friends and family.

I got the keys to my new house a few weeks back. I cannot recommend Carmody Moran Solicitors highly enough. It was a bit lengthy as I was buying and selling at the same time. In such cases you need experienced and competent solicitors such as Carmody Moran Solicitors.Stephanie and Helen were a pleasure to work with. Very transparent and communicative. Also occasionally dealt with Lucy and Caila. They were brilliant as well.I would like to say Thank you to the entire Carmody Moran team.Kenneth

My partner and I recently made the acquisition of our first home and it was a lengthy and difficult process, due to the fact we were buying from a receiver.In such difficult cases, you will need a legal representation as competent and professional as Carmody Moran Solicitors on your side.We were primarily dealing with Stephanie who gave us regular updates, helped us understand what is happening and what to do. We felt our interest always came first which made every appointment with her something we looked forward to.We were also occasionally in contact with Lucy, Niamh and other brilliant members of the firm, all of whom provided an excellent level of support and knowledge in Stephanie's absence.I couldn't recommend Carmody Moran enough. I would like to give a heartfelt thank-you on behalf of myself and my partner to every one involved at the firm who helped us make our dream a reality. We will not hesitate to call upon your services again should the occasion arise.Andrew.

Anthony and his team went above and beyond for me, everything was always looked after and I was constantly kept in the loop for my RTA case. From phone calls to emails to dealing with insurers. Gave me great peace of mind that I chose the right solicitor and Anthony himself is a gentleman. I would highly recommend Carmody Moran Solicitors.

Anthony & Niamh are our family Solicitor, so had no hesitation when the decision was made to sell of our family home. They dealt with my dad in the most caring manner explaining everything in detail. I dealt with Helen Ryan and Stephanie Tierney. The response to every query was exceptional. An absolute pleasure to deal with. If they were unavailable Emma at reception would pass all messages on. It was a very positive experience and a fantastic team at Carmody/Moran Solicitors. Thank you. Marie Byrne
