Motorists are reminded to drive with extra care in the coming days.

“It doesn’t get any better for a few days, I’m told,” Acting Chief Superintendent of Road Policing Ray Rohweder said to Neil Breen.

“I felt a bit sick last night when I really looked at what was happening.

“The last time we had significant rain here, we lost four lives.”
