Given Roy Keane's recent alleged history of road related behaviour, it was a brave person who rear-ended the Ireland assistant manager and Martin O'Neill on the M50 today.
The FAI tweeted earlier confirming the accident.
The ROI mgmt team were involved in collision on M50 earlier. Vehicle was rear ended in traffic. Have rtn'd to hotel & been seen by team Doc

An FAI spokesperson told the Irish Independent that no injuries had resulted from the collision.
It was a minor collision and nobody was hurt. Both Roy and Martin have been looked at by the doctor in the team hotel and they are both fine. We will need to keep an eye on them to see if any symptoms appear within the next 48-hours - like you normally would with these things. But we are very confident that everything is ok. They are a bit stiff and a bit shaken but all is ok. We will have training as normal tomorrow.
The accident happened between the Finglas and Blanchardstown exits of the motorway.
