Terms of use
This is a reference site, not a legal adviser. It tells you what the instruments say; it cannot tell you what your particular notice means, and it does not try to.
Information, not advice
What this site is
A reference site. Every figure on it is taken from a named provision of a named instrument — the Road Traffic Acts as consolidated by the Law Reform Commission, and statutory instruments as published on the Irish Statute Book — and the provision is stated beside the figure so you can check it.
Accuracy, and its current limits
The figures here follow the provisions cited beside them, and none of them has been through our final sign-off. Law changes, and a rule changed recently may not be reflected here yet — provisions can also be enacted long before they come into force, and this site distinguishes the two. Both limits are stated in the notice on every page rather than buried here, and you should still treat the notice you received and the relevant public authority as authoritative over anything written here.
Liability
This site is provided as is. No liability is accepted for any decision taken on the basis of it. If you rely on a figure here for anything that matters, verify it against the instrument cited beside it — the citation is there precisely so that you can.
Corrections
If something here is wrong, say so at info@thefineclock.com and name the provision. It will be checked against the source and corrected.
