THE mother of a baby, whose au pair died rescuing the child from under the wheels of a lorry, has called on trucking companies to act now and not wait for months before installing blind spot mirrors.

THE father of a German au pair crushed to death by a truck in Cork earlier this year said yesterday his daughter’s spirit lives on through the life of the child she saved.

A MIRACLE, a tragedy, life and death — the drama that unfolded on Main Street, Carrigaline, Co Cork, yesterday left many in tears, most in shock, and a town in grief.

IT was an all too familiar sight this week — passersby laying bouquets to mark the scene of an accident, last weekend in Dublin, yesterday in Cork.
