The brother of a cyclist killed while commuting to work has urged people to take extra care over the Christmas and said it “feels very futile that life can be ended over something so preventable”.
Neil Fox, who lost sister Donna in 2016, said less than a second can be the difference between life and death and he called on road users to be extra patient at this time of year.
Neil made his appeal following a number of fatalities on Irish roads in recent weeks. Speaking to The Irish Mirror, he said: “We’re in the Christmas period, around this time people are busy and their minds are busy too, and just to take extra care on the road because a lot more people will be travelling.
