Road Deaths

It doesn’t seem to even register with those lads

Wild cunts. It needs to be clamped down on. They seem to be able to do what they want on the roads.

I saw 3 of them fly into Johns square yesterday from Crosses side, the wrong way on a tight one way street. They were going at a savage speed considering you wpuld at most do 20kph driving the right way

This thread is nearly if not as depressing as the cancer thread recently. One nearly has to cover their eyes before clicking

I was driving on the bike down the A34 a while back. Solid dual carriageway traffic stop start. Some young lad on a scrotorbike with no helmet went down the middle of the two lanes at about 50mph insouciantly pulling a wheelie. These lads are unbelievably talented.

No one dead thank God, but nasty enough by the looks of things.
Must have been at that bad bridge near Jenkinstown.

All ok I hope @iron_mike?

All good thanks for asking. Just in the door. It was the dynan bridge. We very rarely use that road. Usually use the threecastles road

Coming in on the Ardaloo road, I guess?
The Lismaine Roads has been flooded and closed for weeks now, it’s an odd situation

Yeah thats the road Id use. That bridge has been the location of dozens of accidents. Its the main road the glanbia trucks use to and forth from the factory

I travel over the Dinan Bridge regularly, my parents are in Dunmore and I’m over on the far side of Threecastles. It’s so blind coming over from the Dunmore side and it nearly points you towards the oncoming traffic from the Ballyragget side

If Glanbia was a U.S. multinational that road would have been sorted decades ago

It’s very rare that fatal crashes just “happen” or “occur”.

It would appear that the driver of the vehicle is one of those arrested. There are no winners here.

Not to be accused of a gossip by the TFK Screaming Marys, but I didnt follow this, what is being suggested happened? Just dangerous driving, or something more sinister?

Just curious here.

If you were going from Ballyragget to Kilkenny City, you’d take the Freshford - Threecastles - KK road?

I’d say it’s the N77 Ballyragget to KK road as far as Ardaloo, the across that road into Threecastles and into Kilkenny on the Freshford Road

IIRC there was irrelevant text in news stories concerning the vehicle the girls were travelling in , it seemed reading between the lines that it was non standard or modified in some way, I suspect that if the first suspicion holds truth then there will also be insurance deficiencies. What speed another factor?

In theory no. You’d go over the dynan bridge and in by dunmore

Was wondering the same. My dad does this but seems a very long way to go
