    I noticed these are trundling around the city again. Can't say I missed them belching fumes and hogging road space during rush hour while quarter full with few tourists...

    Do they need some manner of licence to operate? In a relatively small city like Dublin that (pre-covid) is thronged with tourists struggling for space with residents and commuters I can't understand the rational of letting them operate.

    If they’re on buses then they’re not clogging up the footpaths dithering along trying to read maps and holding everyone up.

    I’m all for them.

    No Bus can operate any service without a licence, of course they would have one.

    They’re also in pretty much every city in the world. So while you mightn’t care for them, they’re not going away OP so you might have to just accept them
