Trevor Ó Clochartaigh says there's been an increase in such activity in the Carraroe and Rossaveal region, and described those taking part as 'disengaged youths'.At this week's meeting of the County joint policing committee County Mayor Liam Caroll said it was happening on motorways too, and that sooner or later people would be reading in the media about cars going out of control.Councllor Mary Hoade said there was no road safe from this, and she had seen it in Headford and Tuam and even on narrow roads.Councillor Jim Cuddy said it was a potential for multiple fatalities and that Carnmore and Claregalway were 'favourite spots'Chief Garda Superintendent Tom Curley agreed it was much more prevalent now but they were treating it as very serious.He added that there is ongoing operations, and several people were before the courts.Trevor Ó Clochartaigh says a mutli-agency approach is needed to tackle the problem
