QuoteA child has died after a collision involving the car he was driving in Co Limerick this morning.

The driver of the car, a child believed to be 12, was fatally injured.

He was the sole occupant of the car.

It's understood the boy is a Polish national but has been living in Newcastle West.

His body has since been removed to the morgue at University Hospital Limerick. The coroner has been notified.

Shortly before 2am, gardaí and emergency services were alerted following a collision between a car and a lorry on the N21 at Rineroe near Adare. The driver of the lorry, a man in his 40s, did not require hospital treatment.

The scene is preserved for examination by Garda Forensic Collision Investigators. Diversions are currently in place on the N21, with city bound traffic being diverted from Adare via Croom.

Local Fianna Fáil Councillor Michael Collins offered his sympathies to the family on this tragic event.

"It's quite shocking and very sad to hear the tragic news where a young boy has lost his life. I believe he comes from the locality in my own hometown of Newcastle West which is quite difficult for the family at this sad time," he said.

Not the whole article but wasn't sure where else to put this. 12 year old driving the car that he crashed and died in. It's shocking then I remember back to growing up myself. We were driving tractors, cars, etc when we were 13-14 and in those days were were really at risk of pulling round a corner into a checkpoint. It's still a WTF moment though

You'd have 14-15 year olds driving a tractor to be sure, but not at 2am on a main road.
The poor lorry driver, he was likely driving safely and now he has been involved in fatal accident.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Absolutely,  that's why it's in this thread.  No different to joy riders that were the curse of West Belfast for years. Funny that doesn't seem to be as much of an issue these days.

Does the joy riding not still go on a right bit?

I read the article and had the exact same though.
Personally we'd have been driving tractors from you could reach the pedals. Cars, not on roads but definately around a field somewhere.
This is tragic though.

Agree 100%.
Zero credibility the world over. Why anyone would give them the time of day I don't know.
The Brexit disaster, followed by the Covid handling and now Partygate.
Boris is a poor man's Trump (not in a good way).
There really is an absolute lack of self awareness within the British establishment.

Apparently, the Russians asked Truss if Britain recognize Russia's sovereignty over the Rostov and Voronezh regions? And the loo-lah said that that she would never do so. This is like the British asking if they should have an EU Protocol for Finchley, Barnier would never have fallen into that trap.
