Road Safety Alert – Severe Winds

18 December 2013: The Road Safety Authority (RSA), is asking road users to exercise caution while using the roads, as Met Éireann warn of stormy weather later today and for a time tonight in the coastal counties of Connacht and west Ulster. Severe southwest winds will reach mean speeds of 70 to 90 km/h and damaging gusts of 120 to 150 km/h, strongest in exposed areas.

Counties Cavan, Roscommon and Clare may also experience stormy weather with severe southwest winds gusting 100 km/h to 120 km/h this afternoon and evening.

The RSA is asking road users to take extra care in these strong winds and have issued the following advice:

Beware of objects being blown out onto the road. Expect the unexpected.

Watch out for falling/fallen debris on the road and vehicles veering across the road

Control of a vehicle may be affected by strong cross winds. High sided vehicles and motorcyclists are particularly vulnerable to strong winds

Allow extra space between you and vulnerable road users such as cyclists and motorcyclists

Drive with dipped headlights at all times

Monitor radio weather broadcasts while travelling

Advice to Pedestrians & Cyclists;

Be seen. Wear bright clothing with reflective armbands or a reflective belt
Take extra care when crossing the road or cycling in extremely windy conditions as a sudden gust of wind could blow you into the path of an oncoming vehicle.

Walk on a footpath, not in the street. Walk on the right hand side of the road, facing traffic if there are no footpaths

Testimonials

Advance Drive are fantastic! I passed my C1 category test first time and I could not have done it without my instructor Martin. He was very helpful and had great patience with me. Martin answered any questions I had and kept me motivated to pass. Aoife was always so lovely and helpful when it came to booking my lessons and my test. It was very easy to contact Aoife which made everything that bit easier. I couldn't recommend Advance Drive more!

I recently successfully completed my class D driving test. Training was provided by Advance Drive. I was lucky to have been paired with Noel one of the many instructors for the duration of my training. It was an enjoyable experience. Noel was so knowledgeable and he punctuated each lesson with pearls of wisdom and advice. He broke the whole driving process down to make it more readily understandable. All of the staff at Advance Drive were so professional from the very first day. There was a steady stream of emails and text messages to remind you of your driving lessons. Nothing was left to chance during training. Top marks all round to Advance Drive and their staff. June 2024.

I'm euphoric, I passed the C Truck Licence which now allows us to head off into the sunset in our gorgeous huge camper van. Under Noel's tuition from Advance Drive every minute of every hour was spent learning and correcting and improving and more learning until we reached our goal. In my opinion Noel has the perfect balance - he brought a joyous ambience to the cab with his lovely lighthearted demeanour. He instilled a confidence in me and I always left the driving session feeling chuffed. Thank you Noel . Mary Clancy

Excellent instructors and a first time pass A huge thank you to Mr.Lee for his insight and patience with my driving. Whilst I have a driving license in another country, he made it very easy to understand the differences between the road rules and knew exactly what I would struggle with. Rather than teach the 'test answers' he made sure that I would be confident on the road - regardless of the situation. Passed first time.

February 23, 2022Galway

I had Declan as an instructor and he was a straightforward and practical shooter. I found the 2 hour format much more effective for developing my driving as there are always car checks and initial jitters starting a session, then the second hour really beds in good driving habit.

Would definitely recommend advance drive for any learner driver. The team in the office are very friendly and helpful and my instructor Martin was fantastic in helping me feel confident and prepared before the test. Thanks a mil to all :)
