RSA urges pedestrians to take care on roads

The Road Safety Authority is appealing to pedestrians to take care on the roads over the summer months.

The safety message comes in the wake of four deaths on the roads this weekend - three of which were pedestrians.

A 20-year-old woman was killed when she was struck by a car at Rathcormac on the Sligo to Bundoran road on Saturday morning.

An 18-year-old man died after an accident involving a rally car at the Topaz Donegal International Rally yesterday afternoon.

On Friday, a 72-year-old man was killed by a lorry in Co Louth.

Meanwhile, a 17-year-old girl died at Sligo General Hospital yesterday after a single-vehicle collision in the early hours of Saturday morning.
