Cork Motorists Urged To Slow Down

Half of all fatal crashes in Cork this year have occurred within 50km/h speed limits. The figure comes as gardai have told a meeting of the Cork joint policing committee that the worst time for serious accidents is between 2pm and 10pm on Fridays when people are travelling home for weekends. So far this year 14 people have lost their lives in traffic accidents in Cork, which is down from 17 for the comparable period in 2012.
