Rún ag an Rialtas teorainneacha luais ar bhóithre na tíre a ísliú. The Government intends to lower speed limits on a large part of the country’s roads in the hope of significantly reducing the number of people killed in road accidents. Tá sé i gceist ag an Rialtas teorainneacha luais ar chuid mhór de bhóithre na tíre a ísliú le súil an líon daoine a mharaítear i dtionóiscí bóthair a laghdú go suntasach. 128 people have been killed in road accidents in the State since the beginning of the year, which is 24 more than in the same period last year and 39 more than in the same period in 2019. Tá 128 duine maraithe i dtionóiscí bóthair sa Stát ó thús na bliana, sin 24 níos mó ná san achar céanna anuraidh agus 39 níos mó ná san achar céanna in 2019. Speed limits are currently being reviewed by Minister of State for Transport Jack Chambers and will present his recommendations to Cabinet shortly. Tá athbhreithniú á dhéanamh ar theorainneacha luais faoi láthair ag an Aire Stáit sa Roinn Iompair Jack Chambers agus cuirfidh sé a chuid moltaí faoi bhráid na Comhaireachta go gairid. It is understood that the speed limit on second class national roads will be lowered from 100 kilometers per hour to 80 kilometers per hour. Tuigtear go n-ísleofar an teorainn luais ar bhóithre náisiúnta den dara grád ó 100 ciliméadar san uair go dtí 80 ciliméadar san uair. The speed limit on rural roads will also be lowered from 80 kilometers per hour to 60 kilometers per hour. Ísleofar freisin an teorainn luais ar bhóithre tuaithe ó 80 ciliméadar san uair go dtí 60 ciliméadar san uair. 75% of fatal accidents occur on rural roads. Is ar bhóithre tuaithe a tharlaíonn 75 faoin gcéad de thimpistí marfacha. The speed limit will be lowered to between 30 and 50 kilometers per hour in towns, cities and residential areas. Is go dtí idir 30 agus 50 ciliméadar san uair a ísleofar an teorainn luais i mbailte, i gcathracha agus i gceantair chónaithe. Speaking on RTÉ, Jack Chambers said that it would take the local authorities a long time to implement the new speed limits and that it would be a lengthy process. Ag labhairt dó ar RTÉ, dúirt Jack Chambers go mbainfeadh sé tamall maith as na húdaráis áitiúla na teorainneacha nua luais a chur i bhfeidhm agus gur obair fhadálach í. The new limits will be introduced gradually from now to the next two years, he said. Is de réir a chéile as seo go ceann dhá bhliain a thabharfar isteach na teorainneacha nua, arsa sé. However, it is not a time for negligence and in the meantime, said the Minister of State, more Gardaí will be on duty on the roads and more speed vans will be seen. Mar sin féin, ní tráth faillí é agus idir an dá linn, a dúirt an tAire Stáit, beidh tuilleadh Gardaí ar dualgas ar na bóithre agus beidh tuilleadh veaineanna luais le feiceáil. At the
