The RSA are calling for emergency laws to double penalty points for speeding and mobile phone use. 

The group wants the emergency legislation to do this enacted “as a matter of priority” with any such change “supported by targeted enforcement and awareness campaigns”. 

What do you think? Would this make a difference to people's behaviour?

Andrea Gilligan is joined by listeners to get their opinions, including Donna Price, Founder of the Irish Road Victims Association.
