It follows the collision on the M9 in Moone which killed five teenagers and seriously injured another family, just a week after a similar incident resulted in nine injuries, after a car travelled the wrong way down the M50.
The three sisters and 7-year-old boy remain in hospital, two of the women in a critical condition.
Yemi, the young boy, is said to be having surgery today.
A fundraiser set up for those seriously injured in the wrong-way crash on the M9 has raised over €500,000 euro, with a vigil taking place on Friday evening at 6:30pm at St Clares church in Graiguecullen.
