Irish Garda (Police) Website Falls Over

Looks like the Irish police (gardai) website has collapsed under the server load:
Why is this happening?
Well it’s all down to the new speed trap system that is going live this week (today I think). The Gardai are listing all the locations of the traps on their site, but they obviously didn’t think that just about everyone in the country would want to go and look at the list ..

More on the RTE site

And seemingly there are copies of the location list floating around if you want one!
