There is also another joint initiative in the capital promoting a culture of positive and immediate response when it comes to giving way for emergency vehicles. How can motorists develop empathy and responsible decision-making on the roads?

Seán Canney, Minister of State with responsibility for Road Safety, on the report which revealed many gardaí in roads policing were not doing their jobs

So far this year, there have been 35 traffic-related deaths in Charlotte, including four cyclists and eight pedestrians. This has happened despite the city's Vision Zero plan to eliminate all traffic deaths by 2030. We explore what's behind this rise in traffic-related deaths, its relationship to road design and what is and isn't being done to make our streets safe.

Paul talks to Tony Johnstone of the Irish Road Victims Association about their campaign to stop recording of accidents and their initiative to help make for a safe future. See here Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On the 25th of June, our regular City Counselling guest Julie Fairey was involved in a road collision while she was biking in her local area. Fairey wrote about the close call, which she says could have been a lot worse, in a piece published in the Spinoff, as a reinvigoration of her previous advocacy around the need for road safety measures that improve how safely and efficiently Aucklanders can get around the city. As well, this week we've seen the release of the State of the City report, which compares Auckland on metrics including opportunity and prosperity, culture and experience, place and connectivity, innovation and knowledge, and resilience and sustainability. The report found that we are ‘falling behind' other cities, with the biggest emphasis placed on our poor economic productivity in comparison with similar locations. Producer Sara spoke with Julie Fairey about both of these topics, firstly by asking her what motivated her to write about her recent collision.

Maura Fay report on private speed awareness courses for people facing road traffic offences

In this first episode of Made to Parade "Unfiltered", we're joined by Rev. Mervyn Gibson, Grand Secretary of the Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland, to delve into one of the most visually recognisable – and often misunderstood – symbols of Ulster Protestant culture: the Orange arch.Erected in towns and villages across Northern Ireland in the lead-up to the Twelfth of July, these decorative arches are deeply rooted in local tradition, community pride, and historical commemoration. But in recent years, some critics have labelled them as public safety risks or divisive displays.Are these claims based on genuine concern – or are they being used to suppress cultural expression in contested spaces?We explore:The origins and evolution of the Orange arch traditionThe legal and safety processes involved in erecting themCommon myths and criticismsThe broader questions of identity, heritage, and visibility in a post-conflict societyRev. Gibson offers both historical insight and a firm defence of the role these structures play in community life today. Whether you're from within the band scene or looking to understand more about Northern Ireland's cultural landscape, this episode challenges assumptions and sparks important conversation.#MadeToParade #OrangeArches #MervynGibson #CulturalHeritage #NorthernIreland #TwelfthOfJuly #AskMervyn #ParadingTradition #SharedSpace #CommunityIdentity

Lara Lewis (Media spokesperson for Irish School of Motoring - and Qualified ADI Driving instructor) speaks to Kieran sharing the latest Road Safety summer messages including driving advice with more cars travelling across the country on holidays and staycations – and also more young people on the road too with friends in the car, and being aware of distractions.

Mississippi Highway Patrol cautions major holidays like the 4th of July can be deadly when drivers don't follow the rules of the road. Then, the new mayor of the capital city talks about his vision to revitalize Jackson and hopes to build better relationships with federal, state and county, officials.Plus, we talk with political activist Stacey Abrams about the life and legacy of civil rights icon Medgar Wylie Evers.

Hometown Radio 07/02/25 4:30p: Chris Siebuhr talks about road safety in Cambria

With the monsoon session of Parliament scheduled for the 21st of this month, road safety activists in the country have begun a push towards demanding more stringent legislation for automobiles, roads and highways, to ensure better safety for all road users. This is not a small concern – India has one of the highest road traffic accident rates in the world, its roads are some of the world's most deadly, and every three minutes in our country, there is a death due to a road accident. According to Union Minister for Road Transport Nitin Gadkari, every year India sees 4,80,000 accidents, which lead to 1,88,000 deaths of people aged between 18 and 45 years. Additionally, there are 10,000 deaths of children. The country loses 3% of its GDP annually, due to road accidents. Why are our roads so unsafe? Do the problems lie with road design, behaviour on the roads, a lack of implementation of laws or a combination of all these factors and more? Is the government reluctant to ensure better road safety for its citizens? Guest: Ranjit Gadgil, programme director, Parisar, which is part of the Road Safety Network, an Indian coalition of organisations working to improve road safety in the country Host: Zubeda Hamid Learn more about your ad choices.

China's Sodium-Ion Scooter Revolution Summary: China is rapidly adopting sodium-ion batteries in its electric scooter market, led by companies like Yadea. These cheaper and safer alternatives to lithium are ideal for short-range urban transport and could eventually disrupt global battery supply chains. ________________________________________ Toyota Bets Big on Logistics Tech Summary: Toyota is privatising Toyota Industries Corporation to focus on autonomous forklifts, logistics software, and low-emission powertrains. The move reflects a broader trend: rebranding transport as "mobility" and modernising freight handling from the warehouse floor up. ________________________________________ Can Telematics Tame Young Drivers? Summary: A small-scale Aussie study shows real-time driver feedback via telematics might help young drivers—but only briefly. Long-term behavioural change remains elusive, and the research highlights the need for better message delivery methods behind the wheel. ________________________________________ Great Wall Climbs 'Beer O'Clock Hill' Summary: Great Wall Motors proved its off-road mettle by conquering one of Australia's toughest 4WD tracks. Notably, a plug-in hybrid Ute made the climb—demonstrating how EVs and hybrid tech are redefining off-road performance expectations. ________________________________________ Dodge's Electric Muscle Car Stalls Summary: Dodge has paused production of its EV muscle car after poor U.S. sales. Traditional petrolhead buyers weren't sold on battery-powered bravado, highlighting the emotional and cultural resistance still facing EVs—especially in the performance segment. ________________________________________ Driving While Female: Beyond Tokenism Summary: An international survey aims to understand women's experience behind the wheel. While the intent is strong, David and Paul warn against shallow analysis. Real progress requires data that captures access issues, social pressures, and behavioural patterns—not just averages. ________________________________________ Road Toll Stats: Misused, Misunderstood, and Misleading Summary: David unpacks Australia's latest road fatality stats, urging caution when interpreting small sample sizes or percentage shifts. A major jump in remote area deaths is likely due to improved reporting or infrastructure gaps, rather than sudden behavioural changes. ________________________________________ Northern Territory Tops Road Risk Charts Summary: The NT continues to record Australia's highest road fatality rate per capita—over four times higher than most other states. Long distances, rough roads, and speed are likely factors. The data underscores the life-saving power of infrastructure investment. ________________________________________ Respecting the Lane: Lessons from the Autobahn Summary: Paul reflects on how German road courtesy—like letting buses overtake trucks—contrasts with Australia's often combative driving culture. It's a reminder that education, not just engineering, plays a key role in safer roads. ________________________________________ Review: Jaecoo J7 SUV – Chinese Sophistication on a Budget Summary: The Jaecoo J7, a more refined cousin of the Chery Tiggo 7 Pro, offers great value with a premium feel.

Guests: John Banghoff, Jonathan Guseman, Jase BernhardtWe've all seen it. A multi-car pile-up accident that seems unstoppable. One weather phenomenon is often at the root of these - snow qualls. These aren't your typical snow flurries; they can bring sudden, near-zero visibility and treacherous driving conditions in a matter of minutes. We're joined today by 3 meteorologists with snow squall experience: John Banghoff, and Jonathan Guseman from NWS State College and Dr. Jase Bernhardt, Associate Professor at Hofstra University. We'll explore the science behind these intense bursts of weather, why traditional winter warnings often fall short, and the critical steps being taken to better communicate the dangers. This is a deep dive into the evolving world of snow squall warnings.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Snow Squalls and Their Impact04:51 The Evolution of Snow Squall Warnings10:02 Challenges in Communicating Snow Squall Warnings15:06 Understanding Snow Squall Warnings and Their Importance20:05 Forecasting Snow Squalls: Techniques and Challenges22:22 Challenges in Forecasting Snow Squalls24:37 Understanding Snow Squalls vs. Blizzards26:41 Vulnerability on Highways During Snow Squalls28:16 The Importance of Road Temperature Data29:12 Communicating the Risks of Snow Squalls33:46 Future of Snow Squall Warnings38:20 Advancements in Weather Forecasting Technology43:49 Climate Change and Its Impact on SnowstormsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
