It seems everyday that we hear about more deaths on our roads.
Although every single case is a tragedy, I have recently been shocked by how many of these deaths only involve one car.
That to me doesn't make it an accident, except in rare occasions. It is usually either bad driving or driving under the influence, which to me doesn't constitute an accident.
I don't mean to sound callous, but when I hear that someone crashed into a tree, or into a ditch or whatever at 4am then for me its driver error, especially when there is no other car involved.
Is it time that the Garda were making public that the drivers involved were over the limit or high? After the news programmes we hear nothing except debates about road quality, standard of driving, driving tests, speed etc. For me if drunk/high people decide to speed around in their cars I'd ratehr they took themselves out and not some innocent driver/family coming the other way.
