The family of a 12-year-old boy killed in an accident involving a sulky car on a public road say they hope new regulations can prevent further loss of life. Sean Doyle (12) from Melrose Avenue, Clondalkin, Dublin 22, sustained catastrophic injuries after he was thrown from a sulky car beneath the axles of an oncoming truck. He was one of three passengers on the sulky when the accident happened at St Cuthbert’s Road, Clondalkin, on February 26th, 2016. Cherie Smith said her son was allowed to drive it around the yard but not on the public road. The sulky car collided with an oncoming truck.
