Just a guess but maybe if they aren’t government backed scholarships, Ireland has no way of verifying them. What happens if Ireland helps the students get to Ireland and it turns out there isn’t any real money? Now Ireland has to deport the students, which they won’t be able to, so they will then have to cover the full amount of the bogus scholarships to pay for the students who otherwise can’t afford to be there.
I find that speeders often assume that it is only their driving skill that should define their speed. They don’t acknowledge that they will be driving in traffic or what the roads sight lines might be. They are also often delusional about how good a driver they are. There are many times when following a speeder that has woven through traffic that you can visually see all the cars that swerved or hit the brakes so that the “excellent driver” could get through unscathed.
