The Independent Review of Roads Policing, the Crowe Report, confirms that some officers admitted to ignoring traffic offenses without concern for consequences. Consequently, the unsafe conditions on Irish roads have persisted, resulting in 103 fatalities this year, with one-third of the victims being pedestrians, cyclists, or e-scooter users, highlighting the urgent need for better enforcement and protection for vulnerable road users.
