Traffic violations must be addressed

HAVING read your front page story and inside article of your newspaper (August 16) in relation to the proposed speed limit plan by Cork Corporation, it strikes me as a wonderful decision.

It would be wonderful to be able to drive through Cork city with speeds approaching 30km/h. It has often taken me more than 40 minutes to travel through Patrick St, Grand Parade, and South Mall.

To introduce this speed limit is foolhardy without correcting the already obvious traffic violations which are in place.
