Road deaths: 'My father’s life, his dreams, seemed to hold little value in the eyes of the courts'

Speaking on World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims, Laura Rice said the loss of her father Alan would have been 'much easier' to deal with had the legal process concluded within a reasonable timeframe. Picture: Keith Arkins Media 

The daughter of a man killed by a dangerous driver has accused the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) of “not caring about the victim” after the case against her father’s killer was delayed repeatedly.

Terry Gaff, aged 56, pleaded guilty last April to causing the death of 68-year-old Alan Rice after driving into his motorcycle on the wrong side of the road, near Skerries in Co Dublin in April 2021.
