Drivers who must have won their licence as a prize

the car ends up in a tree ffs. the internet was obsessed with a few cyclists breaking a red light in england last week lol.

Somewhere near Clane apparently

Clane bypass. Loads of housing on that but the walls are the height you see on that video the whole length of it on each side. Hotel exit just up from that and it’s a busy road. Roundabout is huge. Not sure how you could loose it on that.

Indians?! lol. Its Irish who cant drive. Living here long enough and been driving in many countries enough to know what I'm talking about. The daily dose of idiotic driving showcase is presented by Irish. You guys are great craic, decent people, good musicians, great sense of humor, but not great at driving. Its just not your thing.

• traffic rules. What's that? Never heard of. You enter roundabout, expect anything dumb to happen at any moment. Right of way? Who cares. Yellow boxes? Those are just neat empty places to park my ass. Traffic lights? Don't get me started...first 4-5 cars jumping red is like a national tradition. If you don't do it, you must be an eejit.
• lane management. lol. what's that? Irish chose the lane to drive like they chose what shoes they gonna wear that day. And stick to that no matter what. Middle lane is the preference, does not matter how many lanes road can have. Even if any of M roads would have 7 lanes (none in Ireland luckily), Irish would be in the lane 4. Doing 60km/h. All the time, even at night when the whole motorway is empty.
• Lights. Fcuk them. Irish don't need them. Any of them. "As long as I can see the road ahead of me, I don't give the **** about the rest around me." Luckily, new cars mostly have auto-lights. Yesterday morning at 7am on N11, very dark morning + lashing rain. At front of me maroon qashqai with no lights. Rear window had L and N stickers on. What's that about? One retard passing its "wisdom" to the next one? I know the law in Ireland states "Just after the beginning (dusk) and before the end (dawn)" which is bizarre already for such a dark country but everyone interprets dusk and dawn as they wish. For many neither ever comes as it seems.
• awareness. complete lack of it. Driving on left lane at 60km/h, gonna change my lane now to right, a car behind me driving at 120km/h, fcuk them. Sense of speed? What's that? "I switched on turn signal when you were just 50cm away from me, didn't I?!"
• joining motorways. Ooh, too scary. "I better stop completely before joining the lane with cars doing 120km/h. They will brake and overtaking me and I will flash my lights at them madly for the crazy maniacs they are.

And nothing changes. 2004 or 2024 same level of dumb ape sh1t driving skills. Lots of things have changed legally - no more driving alone while you are still learner. Mandatory 12 (or whatever number) driving lessons before you can take test. Result - still see cars with L plate and single person in the car. We all know older folks driving skills were mad, at the end of the day big portion of them never had to pass any test. Hope was that during last 20 years every new generation will be better. Well, not there yet. Every day you see something exceptionally stupid on the road the chances are car will have a N sticker in the window. How come?! Why?! is it because the driving wisdom was passed to them by their mum or dad who found their license in the cereal box? Aren't you supposed to be with the most fresh knowledge of the rules, you just passed your test ffs. How can you drive so idiotic? There is a white polo often on M11 with N sticker doing while sh1t. If anyone honks or flashes at their dumb driving, they turn on blinking FU finger emoticon positioned in rear window. Better invest your money in driving skills you dumb clown!

Garda traffic corps. lol. Is there actually any in Ireland? Don't think so. You see them as a accessory to States revenue service collecting money for no-tax, no-nct, and speed traps. Ah, and random alco checks for PR purposes. That's it! Have you ever seen a traffic Garda taking aside the middle-lane-clown or a clown with WX reg going southbound on M50 with no lights at 10pm and giving them a ticket or at least a slap? Have you ever seen them going after those 4-5 cars jumping red light? I have never, not even once in 20 years.

I don't disagree with the broad thrust of your comments.

I will point out that a vehicle with an LG plate and an unaccompanied driver is not necessarily a sign of an unlicensed driver. It may well be that they haven't bothered to take down the plate.
