Motorcyclists should get training, urges safety council

The National Safety Council insists training is needed following the deaths of 41 motorcyclists this year. For the same period in August last year 22 motorcyclists were killed on our roads.

The latest motorcyclist to die was a 28-year-old from Co Waterford. One of three people killed on Thursday, he died when his bike skidded out of control and into the path of an oncoming car at Kilmurrin, Bonmahon, at 12.50pm.
