Department of Transport rejects claims on road strategy
11/01/2006 - 10:50:23The Department of Transport has totally rejected claims by the Irish Insurance Federation that the National Road Safety Strategy has failed.
The IIF says the three-year strategy, which is already two years old, has failed to tackle road deaths effectively and has not been fully implemented.
The department says the current Government is the first to introduce penalty points and a Traffic Corps, and that legislation to cover the introduction of speed cameras is soon to be introduced.
