Co Kildare man still in 'critical condition' since crash on Sunday night

A County Kildare Cllr is expressing concern about the number of accidents on roads so far this year, with two local people now in a serious condition.

Fine Gael Cllr Brendan Weld is urging people to be mindful of road safety at all times.

He said: "We all have to be careful, if we all went that bit slower, that is the reality of it."

Killina man, Raymond Morris, was returning from celebrating his mother's 89th birthday, on Sunday  night, when a jeep he was driving collided with a ditch.

His condition is being described as 'critical.'

Meanwhile, a motorcyclist is suffering from leg injuries after colliding with a car near Kill, yesterday morning.
