Well, that was quick...

McGrath says he was 'wrong' to suggest gardaí involved in political policing (https://www.rte.ie/news/politics/2019/0331/1039724-driving-laws-politics/)

In a statement this afternoon, Mr McGrath said he was happy to withdraw his comments, adding that: "Nobody is more supportive of the work An Garda Síochána does - often in tough circumstances - than I am".

He said his comments in this morning's Sunday Independent were prompted by concerns raised to him over the last number of weeks.

In response to the comments, a garda spokesperson said the organisation is non-political and that its main function is to keep people safe.

In a statement it said 12% of drink driving arrests happen between 8am and 2pm, which it said "clearly shows that some people are driving over the legal limit during the morning and are putting their own lives and the lives of other road users at risk."

It said that reducing drink driving by enforcement and education was a key means of saving lives on roads, adding that checkpoints play an important role in that regard.

What about some enforcement of speed limits? I was passed by 18 taxis and a Garda car while driving down O'Connell St on Saturday evening at the maximum permissible speed of 30 kilos/hour.

Unused to stick to the speed limit when I was drunk too.

No. I was driving at the maximum permissible speed i.e. 30 kilos/hour.
