- Whilst 2021 saw the lowest number of road deaths in Ireland since records began, the numbers so far for 2022, for both fatalities and serious injuries, are higher than where they were this time last year. To try and find out what is causing these collisions and what needs to change, we will visit the front line of road safety across both rural and urban Ireland to look at the challenges we currently face. We go on patrol with An Garda Roads Policing Units in Kildare across both day and night shifts. We also join Gardaí and RSA Vehicle inspectors at road checkpoints.
Mandatory and continuous fitness tests for the Gardaí are required. Not to be hurtful but she could not pursue anyone on foot even without the additional kit that's worn.
Does no police force in the world have mandatory physical fitness requirements with annual tests/re-training?
I could genuinely get away from them at jogging pace. Even sadder is they only carry pepper spray. Don't even have a taser, so if I'm running their chance of catching me are 0.
You have to be when starting, if you weren't in shape in training most likely you won't make it
There high viz vests give them an extra 4mph on foot
The gardaí all have to pass an annual fitness and physical competency test, and 90% of them I see keep themselves fit but I do often wonder about the few that look like they regularly fail those tests. I their defence, they are just the roads policing unit, they basically spend their day parked on the side of the road checking speed or inspecting cars, they wouldn't really respond to foot chases or crime in towns and cities.
Why do you think we call the other the pigs haha
The just pick dorks for every job now 😊
So professional👏, This is the best clip I have seen in a while of our beloved garda.
Sarcasm
Are you OK
Why do I get the feeling Deirdre and Dave are usually sitting behind a desk drinking coffee and were dragged out for the cameras.
Have you a link for the full episodes please?
What if that female garda has to chase someone on foot , she can barely move
What do you do when you see garda speeding and on the phone with no blue lights flashing.
Oh my God, the size of the passenger, she is huge.
like ya mum?
Wow it’s so interesting how they check people
So what about us shift workers then? What are we supposed to do if were tired? Not work?????
Burglars must drive within limits then and never get caught ?
It's a money making racket disguised as "safety".

So original 🏆
I love their 2 numbers to large safery boots🙌
She couldn't catch a cold ffs 😆😆😆
Who the fuck could she chase after.???
A cream bun
naas guards are so desperate honestly, all points my uncle has are from them thats why i dont touch the place bc i know how dry they are for handing fines out and how much they fail to realise speed isnt the killer
that girl needs to hop on the old push bike the kilo's are upon her shes like a bursting blueberry.a walking heart attack.
Who would WPC O'Custard catch if someone were to fast walk away from her? All in the name of equality no doubt.
If it 80 km an hour then you are untitled to do 80 if the road is dangerous reduce the speed limit.
Untitled? You clown.
Tried to question some issues with this recording but it was redacted before I could post... Some questions that occurred to me while watching. Were both garda drugs and alcohol tested before they started duty? If the law is to be applied equally to all citizens why is the road traffic act ignored in regard to scramblers? If infractions of the road traffic act of one kind are ignored surely all other charges under the act are unsafe? Just saying.
Your questions are bit random. No more than drug testing someone going to work in a post office or bank. It would be completely over the top. Scramblers are illegal, but parents continue to but them. If guards started to chase young lads on scramblers there would be needless fatalities.
@@briankelly8297 My comment about the garda being drug tested is very valid, do bank or post office workers have powers of arrest or have they access to policing intelligence? As I'm sure you are aware Ireland has a lot of crime gangs and as garda are people too they could be targeted by gangs if they develop a drug habit? As to garda ignoring sections of the road traffic act simply put if one law is overlooked then the law is not equal and is therefore open to challenge under our constitution .
@@kracked4462 Gardai are also ordinary people who are entitled to the same protections under law as the rest of us, including not being unreasonably searched or seized. The Guards need to have a reason to test you for drink or drugs (e.g. they have reasonable suspicion based on your actions, odors smelled around you, etc). Similarly, it would be a violation of rights of Gardai to randomly test them for drugs without reasonable suspicion unless they agreed to such tests in their contract.
Like you said, the law must be applied equally to all, and the same protections under law that we have, the gardai have.
@@Alfa-mb5esI agree Garda are ordinary people too and as we have seen from the john murphy case they too are open to exploitation too.
@@kracked4462 Airport workers are open to exploitation. As are health care workers. As are dock workers and customs employees and politicians, judges, lawyers and plenty more. That doesn't mean any of them should have their rights violated.
How come those goons respond to emergency calls in 40 to 90 minutes on average,

Pity the Gardai don't practice what they preach. Double Standards, do as I say, not as I do.
Two comments:
1.. She’s not wearing epaulettes which are mandated by Garda policy.
2.. Their condemnation of mobile phone use while driving a vehicle. I fully agree, yet we see Gardai driving official vehicles everyday while having a phone in their hand.
Can’t all be work calls now can it.
In any event, the distraction caused by mobile phone usage doesn’t disappear just because it’s a work call.
Roads policing do great work, but Garda policy isn’t being adhered to in this video, and the fact that Gardaí can use phones for work calls despite the obvious safety possibilities is ridiculous. Let the non-driving Garda take the call.
Work calls indeed!
Fuck the garda rats
What show is this
Tax collectors. Sit on the motorway all day. Speed does not kill, the misapplication of speed and bad driving kill. Also, do a bleep test. A 10 year old would run away from them. Crazy
🤣💤
Neee Noor Nee Noor here comes the law
Oink oink
Drôle
fat ban gard hahaha
fat like yo mama
Nasty.

so is ya mum
@@joedirt3449 so is ur family
all gardai should be tested for drugs and drink before and after they go on and off duty because people know most of them are drunk or hi
We tried that, they wanted six months notice before a test. Could you imagine telling them to give ya six months before you'll do the swab 😂
Most of them?
Most..how do you know?
Riveting stuff
Catch a lot in those hyundais 😂
Why the feck is he driving around wit a baby elephant for?

No wonder that ban Garda is only traffic. Can you imagine her in Dublin chasing some junky down O'Connell Street after snatching a handbag. But I'll give the benifit of doubt, as they say the camera adds a few pounds 😜
