  4. Grace Lynch’s parents on death threats, online abuse and their campaign for road safety reform

16 year old Grace Lynch was killed by a scrambler bike in
January, while out walking near her home in Dublin.


Her heartbroken parents Siobhán and Martin immediately embarked
on a campaign to ensure nobody would suffer as they had, seeking
legal changes to take scrambler bikes and e-scooters out of the
hands of children.


Their campaign has already forced the introduction of Grace’s
Law, banning the use of scramblers on public roads, but a
combination of legal loopholes, lack of enforcement and a
non-existent tracing system means, they say, there is much more
work to do.


They’ve received death threats and online abuse as a result of
speaking out – with little legal recourse.


When they approached social media giant TikTok about abusive AI
videos of their deceased daughter, they were asked to provide a
death certificate.


Today the couple will speak before an Oireachtas Justice
committee.


Listen to their story on today’s episode of The Deirdre
O’Shaughnessy Podcast.
