Two of the most recent road deaths have occurred in the last three days.
A collision in Co Wexford on August 14 resulted in the death of a male passenger in his early 30s after his vehicle collided with a tree, while a woman in her 90s died after a two-vehicle collision on the N17 in Co Mayo on August 15.
Gardaí are appealing for witnesses to both incidents.
