A road crash between a motorbike and an SUV occurred on the N25 at Drinagh, near the Zurich Insurance turn-off, leading to the closure of one of the main arteries into Wexford town. Emergency services responded and the road was closed in both directions to allow a full Garda examination. The motorcyclist, a man in his 70s, was taken by ambulance to Wexford General Hospital. Gardaí believed he suffered multiple fractures, with injuries described as serious but non-life-threatening. The closure caused huge tailbacks along the N25, and motorists were urged to use alternative routes. The scene was preserved for a forensic collision investigator, and the road was expected to remain closed for some time.
