A man whose sister was killed in a road collision six years ago this week is calling for road safety to be given more clout at the Cabinet table because of the increase in road fatalities this year.

Donna Fox, 30, died in Dublin on September 6, 2016, while cycling to work. The incident involving a truck took place at traffic lights at a junction in the north inner city. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
