Hey guys quick question about this i'm unsure as to whether i'm breaking the law or not in doing what i'm doing.

There is a bus lane starting from the bottom of Patricks street towards Christ Church only about 100m long.
The sign says it operates between 07:00 and 10:00 and again from 16:00 to 19:00 same hours at the College Green Bus corridor.

Is it ok for a private car to drive in said bus lane outside the operating hours?

I've done it once or twice and have gotten fairly dirty looks over it. As far as i can remember from my test if a bus lane has operational times on it any motorist is free to use it outside of those times.

The Bus Lane is totally dependent upon the Statutory Signage.

If the plate gives operational hours then outside those it reverts to a normal traffic lane

Never mind the bulls looks and fair play to ye for even looking for the signage !!!
