Coroner reiterates call for speed limiting devices

A CORONER has proposed vehicles registered to drivers under 25 years of age should be fitted with speed limiting devices to reduce the shocking number of deaths of young people.

South Kerry Coroner Terence Casey was speaking yesterday at an inquest into one of the worst road crashes in living memory that claimed the lives of four Kerry teenagers, including two brothers, on August 25 last.

The Hyundai Accent in which they were travelling careered into a ditch and struck a tree at Carigeen, Headford, on the main Killarney-Mallow road at 7.10am.
