You actually don't understand how dumb and bizarre these ads can be. Just a few I can think of off the top of my head is where one was a man and his child with someone recording, the girl with her hands over her eyes and the man gets on the motorcycle, when the girl opens her eyes both the man and motorcycle disappeared as she looks around for him.
Another is this guy driving to work and he crashes or something, and as he's crashing we see his hand reaching out to what I assume is his family members (his wife, sister, baby, etc, most likely his life flashing before his eyes) before returning to what's actually happening, his car is flipped over on the road and he's dead. They are really bizarre and creepy.

Why do I feel like there are a few Irish stereotypes which can point to this speeding problem that Ireland seems to have?

man, PSAs like this go around just about anywhere in any country, in fact i watched several PSAs from usa and canada specifically (and there are ones from australia and europe and all) and some of them are the downright creepiest/bizarre/even saddening sometimes
like damn
here's one just below the spoiler tag (be warned for it is somewhat graphic, and is not for the faint-hearted)
