With An Garda Síochána recently reporting that over 2,100 motorists were caught speeding during the Easter Bank Holiday surge, road safety is now an important story.

While the national figures show the scale of the problem, new research of 60,000 policies by Irish provider its4women identifies exactly where these habits are most ingrained. Their data reveals Cavan as the nation’s speeding hotspot (26% “dangerous speeding” rate), while Limerick and Roscommon emerged as the most compliant.

Crucially, the study shows that telematics (black box) tech is actually fixing the issue, and in Limerick, claims for black box users dropped to less than 1%. To find out more about this I spoke to its4women’s CEO, Gary McClarty. Gary spoke about his background, the its4women’s analysis, telematics and more.
