When I was driving home on Friday I got stuck behind a truck and about 40 cars. The truck was driving at 30mph. It wouldn't pull into the hard shoulder. I was behind this truck from Limerick to Nenagh. Talk about frustrating.
Then reading about the new penalty points got me thinking - will people get points for pulling into the hard shoulder to let others pass? I would like to believe that this is not the case, surely to God, but I amn't so sure with an _______(insert phrase of choice) like M Cullen at the helm. Does anyone know what the situation is with the hard-shoulder penalty points?
On a side note - I heard this morning on the radio that road deaths in the North are way down, and they attribute this to education and widening of the road at accident black spots. Do you think the ______ M Cullen will take any lessons from this?
