Lack of regular driving tests ‘puts pedestrians’ lives at risk’
Dr Alan Moran from Drogheda said patients of his will not walk or do any form of exercise on the roads because of fears they might be knocked down by speeding and careless drivers.
“I am forever asking patients to take more exercise, which to many will mean walking or cycling. However, a large number of people will not do so, having had the daylights frightened out of them on many occasions by near misses from inconsiderate drivers,” he said.
