City Councillor calls for ban on sharing images of road traffic accidents

A city councillor has labelled the practice of taking and sharing pictures of road traffic incidents as 'grotesque'.

Labour Councillor Níall McNelis is demanding the Government ban the practice, and say it's a disrespectful intrusion into the private grieving process.
