Motor fine evasion - Lawbreaking needs to be addressed

Is it possible that Seamus McCarthy, the comptroller and auditor general (C&AG) and the country’s public spending watchdog, is a better cop than the cops?

He has discovered that as many as one in five motorists in Ireland are evading fines because of deficiencies in the fixed penalty system.

Offenders are getting away with breaking the law because their cars are registered to a company and, thereby, cannot be traced or because An Post delivers the summons to the wrong address.
