Garda calls for caution on roads
A senior Garda official is appealing to pedestrians to take extra care on the roads this Christmas and throughout the year.
Regional Traffic Inspector Billy Duane also urged passers-by to help out if they see someone out walking who is evidently intoxicated.
He asked that those travelling by foot would make sure they are visible at night, and not to pass too close to any vehicles.
His call for caution comes just hours after the death of a West Cork woman after being struck by a car overnight.
