The Road Safety Authority have launched their World Remembrance Day for road traffic victims, taking place on Sunday, November 17th.
Laura Rice, daughter of Alan Rice who died in a road traffic collision in 2021, was one of the people at the RSA launch today.
“His friend came around the corner and had to work on him and the man who killed him also did try to work on him. “He had €1,000 and a two year suspended sentence, but he was able to get back in his car that day that he killed my dad as he was innocent until proven guilty, and then he never got any disqualification from the road.”Ms Rice said mandatory sentencing, further details and family seating would have made their experience a little bit less difficult.“There is mandatory sentencing, you are supposed to be disqualified from the road… that should have been enforced,” Ms Rice said.
