Drink driver who left two cyclists with life-changing injuries wins unfair dismissal case The electrician was sacked by Irish Rail after he was jailed for crashing into a group of cyclists whilst uninsured and 4 times over the legal alcohol limit cycling
An electrician who was sacked by Irish Rail while serving a prison sentence for crashing into a group of cyclists while drunk and uninsured, leaving two of them with life-changing injuries, has been awarded €4,000 in compensation after winning his case for unfair dismissal.
Flynn crashed into a group of female cyclists in Doon, Roscommon, on 24 September 2017 after losing control of his father’s car on a straight stretch of road. Áine O’Connor and Catherine Carey were flung into the air as they were struck from behind by Flynn, with both cyclists sustaining life-changing injuries in the horrifying collision.
At the time of the sentencing, Ms Carey said that she still endured persistent pain throughout her body, had a noticeable deformity in her spine, and suffered from impaired concentration and memory, headaches, dizzy spells, and an inability to converse with more than one person at a time, including her children.
