In 2017, Brian Mayclim was involved in a traffic collision. What followed was a 10 week coma and an 11 month stay in Tallaght Hospital as he had to learn how to walk again.

The driver of the lorry that caused the multi-vehicle crash was recently handed a driving ban after pleading guilty to careless driving causing serious harm.

In the Court hearing, the judge praised Mayclim's attitude in his victim impact statement, and said it was the measure of a man that he didn't wish ill will on the accused.
