Driver's Republic Podcast

This week we're joined by Dave Humphreys who is not only one of Ireland's busiest motoring journalists but a seasoned motorcyclist who has been lucky enough to ride a lot of two wheeled things in his career! He has been trained in advanced riding and is here to chat about being on the road from the perspective of a motorcyclist but also as a car driver. Mark has recently progressed through the Initial Bike Training (IBT) scheme which is mandatory in Ireland and is regulated by the RSA and gives his perspective on how he found the training as someone who until just a few weeks ago, had never ridden motorcycles. Paddy asks the important questions and tries to uncover some of the issues that both motorcyclist and motorists need to be aware of during yet another particularly tragic spell on Irish roads.Please be considerate to motorcyclists on the roads and remember, particularly when pulling out of junctions in your car, look right, look left and look right again.
