windscreen cleaning

tyney

What's with the lads cleaning your windscreen at the m50 red cow slip road.
Is it illegal? I feel sorry for people who haven't the courage to tell them to eff off in a forceful manner. the guy behind me (old geezer in suit) waved them away, but he cleaned it regardless, then stood at the drivers window harrassing the old geezer for money. That's not right, :mad:

they never clean my window. I have the menacing growl down to a fine art. but I am waiting for someone to hop out and deck one of them some day.

As they approach my car I simply use my windscreen washer. They attempt to clean anyway which usually results in me letting a roar at them. Some still dont take heed. If nobody gave them money then they'd just go away. Surely its got to be dangerous and illegal to be walking among traffic, especially at the mad cow?

Dear God are you still putting up with that carry-on in Dublin? Just tell them you work for Immigration Services!

As there are so many people here you can be guaranteed that there will always be some muppet who wants to chance his arm and make few quid using a tried and trusted, and previously failed method.

I've a lot more respect for the young lads that call asking if I want my grass gut:p

rumour has it that there are some gardai on these boards. I wonder could they enlighten us as to whether the practice is illegal,and what does it take to get rid of them. What station has the responsibility for that area, and is it worth anyone's while reporting them? or we could just give out about them and do nothing..............................

Clondalkin, I think.

I'd say we'll just give out about them - like I said there's always some muppet...............

I doubt its high on An Garda Síochána's list of priorities.;)

Our man in Havana

Reckless endangerment, jay walking prehaps or maybe demanding money with menaces?

He'd have to be cleaning himself off the windscreen if he touched my car.....

I have about 10K bugs on my windscreen and no water to wash them However i would tell them to feck off.
Anyone got out of their car.. grabbed some dirt and thrown it back on their window? I would love to see their faces
