Fiat changes car design after fatal crash
An American tourist suffered multiple injuries and had both her legs severed after the hired Punto she was driving collided with a Bus Éireann coach on the main Tralee/Killarney road, on May 12, according to evidence.
The death of Ruth Dickerson, 64, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, led Garda public service vehicle inspector Jim O’Brien to highlight a design feature of the car with its manufacturer, and to a warning from the coroner at the inquest in Kenmare.
