    Why not a bright yellow color for all cars, but a bright orange color for all cars where the driver is drunk or stoned?

            Pedestrians will need to pass an annual inspection to make sure they have the proper high-vis gear, flame resistant clothing, and signal lights.

              When everything is high viz with flashing lights and alerts, nothing is high-viz.

                    If they're having traffic accidents, why not try driving on the right side of the road first?

                      Not sure how it is across the pond, but here in the US they stick a probe up the tailpipe to measure emissions. 😏

                        I don't think making all humans high-viz is the same as making everything high-viz

                        With that said, it would make a lot more sense to just enforce more training and license requirements on driver's. And set size limits on vehicles so they can all actually see what's in front of them.

                                    Better some dog tags and default organ donor status for when they inevitably get killed.

                                        Well, I'm in favor of default donor status, if the organs are not harvested for money

                                          Ireland has a big infrastructure problem, that's for sure. If you live anywhere between Limerick and Dublin, well good luck getting around without a car. It's amazing how a country that'd be in an ideal position to have year round acceptable temps for cycling, barely any hills to speak of, and no extreme weather excuses either to keep up transit infra, is so regressive that they chose to go the route of 70s North America instead of becoming a second Netherlands or Denmark.

                                          They actually have more problems. For example look at its population. It never recovered after the great famine. And they always whine about one thing or another. But they do anything except for the right thing to actually attract young people wanting to have children.

                                          The whole country outside of four urban centres is an absolute nightmare if you don't drive, and just not conductive to establishing a family anywhere.
