Garda road safety hassles crackdown in July

    Got this on email today. Not sure if it's true but better safe than sorry.
    I was doing a broadband wireless install last week for a Garda from the
    Traffic Corps (huge animal p0rn fan apparently, or so the conversation
    went). While I was there, he told me that starting Saturday 1st
    July, he will be sitting on his ar5e watching cars speed by. The state
    estimates
    that over €250,000 is wasted in chasing up speeding offences which are
    eventually thrown out by the courts. He reckons that by not bothering with
    these people that a further €100,000 will go
    to pay for a huge Garda christmas party in Coppers this year. With extra
    nurses and primary school teachers... Meeeow.

    There will be no Gardai on duty at all times patrolling on the following:

    M7/N7 from Naas to Portlaoise (Three lanes, are ya kidding me, one is too
    many to watch)
    N4 to Mullingar from Dublin (It's the M4 now, but sure anyway)
    N6 to Athlone (Too many gardai from here)
    N81 to Baltinglass (Who wants to go to Wickla)
    N11 to Wexford (Can't be dealing with knackers or strawberries)
    M50 (The one that's shaped like a doughnut with a Garda sized bite taken out
    in Dublin Bay)
    Dublin - Drogheda ( Not that they ever did anyway)

    Their will be additional Gardai assigned to 'flying squads' - mobile
    units to ferry off duty mates to pubs in Dublin, Wicklow, Kildare, Meath,
    Laois, Westmeath, Offaly, Louth and Kilkenny

    I'm warning everyone now not to be hassling Gardai reporting any driving
    offences in July. They couldn't be ar5ed dealing with them and all there
    money has been used up chasing drug dealers in Dublin and on expenses tabs in
    coppers.

    There unmarked cars are easy to spot with two radio antennas, no car
    dealership stickers and two ugly looking biffos sitting in the front seats,
    maybe the odd student in the back to show off too. It's up to you how fast
    you go. Today Fm know fark all about road safety and are not the authority on
    what the gardai are or are not doing so I didn't ask them about this. So be
    safe and
    don't forget speeding tickets are on you. You've been warned. Please forward
    this on to ten of your gullible mates within 10 minutes or you will wake up
    tomorrow morning beside a big fat sweaty hairy garda from Leitrim.
