I was the designated driver when I was in college and stuff.

But I suppose just going back to Donegal, like there is a huge problem with people dying on the roads, like young men in their 20s in counties like Mayo and Donegal are disproportionately represented in road traffic collisions.

I was in the RSA there last month.

And Donegal this year has around 10% of road deaths and only 3% of the population.

So unlike a lot of those people were in there, like last month, three people died in their 20s and 30s.

Yeah, and, like, there has been huge talk about this in Donegal, just considering, like, especially last month when there was that weekend, devastating weekend in May, and councillors there are calling for measures like average speed cameras, which I think is, like, people do slow down, I think, when, well, as far as I know, with the average speed cameras, and also more locally-led safety campaigns.

So you very rarely would see, like,

Donegal County Council, let's say, putting out a safety campaign about certain areas or certain roads or trying to call people to slow down or even school campaigns and things like that.

You come with me, I'll bring you.

I think like I just really remember the 2012 Olympics.

It was just such a monumental moment for Ireland.

And I think Katie Taylor has made the ability of women to have boxing careers.

And I think as a woman who likes sport, I have to go.
