It will be a sad Christmas for more families this year as the roads have claimed another three victims.
Two men and a teenager have been killed in separate road crashes in Wexford, Kerry and Louth.
The accidents were this morning, with one involving a motorcyclist who was killed following an accident at Ballymitty in Co Wexford.
It is believed the accident happened at around 8am when the unnamed motorcyclist was in collision with a car.
Meanwhile, a man in his 50s - who has not yet been identified - has been killed in a two-car collision in Co Kerry. The crash happened shortly after 8am at Ardtully in Kilgarvan.
As a result, the Kenmare to Kilgarvan Road has since been closed.
Also, a teenager has died in hospital from injuries he sustained in a crash in Dunleer, Co Louth, last night.
The victim has been named as 19-year-old Mark King, from Ballygowan in Ardee.
