Not being funny but is the gender important?
This is horrible news, but the way the article is written weirdly puts gender at the forefront. The emphasis on the female pedestrian, male driver thing is a bit weird especially considering this type of thing has happened before, which The Journal have reported on, without the same emphases.

Unlike say murder or rape, gender has absolutely nothing to do with traffic accidents… What’s up with useless details in the headlines?
Why be up in arms about the gender???!! Seriously! 🤦♀️ Three people killed on the roads and it’s cos they were reported as “three females”, everyone be focussing on that?!!!
My blood is boiling. What’s wrong with drivers.
It’s amazing that 3 individuals have been killed, and yet the articles has zero mention of the drivers being questioned at all.
It’s always assumed the driver is the real victim.
Men are more likely to engage in reckless behaviour while driving https://www.rsa.ie/docs/default-source/road-safety/r4.1-research-reports/safe-road-use/a-review-of-the-literature-on-male-driver-risk-factors-2022.pdf?Status=Master&sfvrsn=9b672bef_3
Bring drivers education in as a mandatory class in all secondary schools. Give each secondary school a cheap dacia or something and teach kids to drive as part of school. Drill safety into them before they even start driving
What’s up with emphasis on gender? A second thread I see today.
Apparently 2023 was the worst year for a while, if you’re willing to believe Jimmy.
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_road_traffic_accidents_deaths_in_the_Republic_of_Ireland_by_year](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_road_traffic_accidents_deaths_in_the_Republic_of_Ireland_by_year)
It’s no comfort to those who survive these women’s deaths, but the roads are generally safer than they used to be, despite being busier than they used to be. [or maybe because, I don’t know]
The men getting offended in the comments… my lord
Bloody pedestrians and cyclists. They should pay road tax, have number plates and pay insurance.
Someone will be expressing pretty much that opinion about this. On twitter, it’s guaranteed.
The cyclist “collided with tractor” please give me a break
Incels out in force on this thread.
Deaths caused by motorists should be treated as manslaughter with corresponding sentences.
When it goes to court the motorist should have to prove the cause of the crash/death was beyond their control before sentencing is reduced.
This country is an absolute joke when it comes to road policing. I saw more traffic police when I was working in Africa driving on dirt roads. Speed vans parked up on motorways are of no addition.
The woman in Clare was killed by a young guy driving a tractor. There’s a serious issue with tractor licenses been given out so easily given that these days they’re much bigger, faster and more powerful machines than they ever were in the past.
The driver and passenger of the car involved in the accident in Meath had to go to the hospital for injuries.
What the fuck happened that you had to be treated for injuries after knocking a pedestrian down?
