Galway councillor claims RSA messaging amounts to 'victim blaming' - 'Children are not killed because of a lack of high-vis vests'

The motion also originally asked councillors to declare that the local authority had "no confidence in the RSA", and to demand that recommendations from the 2024 Indecon report be implemented immediately.

Reviews in the Indecon report suggest "radical changes in the responsibilities for aspects of road safety" as well as "significant changes in the funding".
