The number of people killed on our roads this year is up by 12 on the same period last year.
Gardaí are appealing to people to be safe on the roads this bank holiday weekend, with 123 deaths so far this year.
CSO data shows the October bank holiday weekend is one of the busiest periods on Irish roads.
Garda evidence shows the risk of a collision is highest between 3pm and 6pm daily, with Friday being the most dangerous day.
