Independent family record about Tipperary County Council’s 14 October 2024 Motion 2861 on default speed limits. The motion was proposed by Niall Dennehy and seconded by Mairín McGrath; the October minutes record unanimous agreement, while December minutes record the agreed referral for legal advice. The rural-local-road default changed nationally from 80 to 60 km/h on 7 February 2025, and the Council’s March report records implementation in Tipperary. This film asks which dated assessments explain limits and signs on the Kilmoyler approach. It does not claim a site-specific limit, driving behaviour, fault, or collision causation. The real family road photograph was taken on 1 May 2025, after the crash. It is later local context, not meeting evidence; the bridge is not visible. Not Tipperary County Council’s official channel. Factual record. No finding of causation or responsibility is made here.
