Irish Mirror Boyracer

    Todays Irish Mirror mentions boards.ie in reference to a boyracer clip on youtube which shows very dangerous driving on the outskirts of Drogheda. Apparently folks on here have reported the clip to the gards. As I'm from the area myself, (the boyne cable bridge which appears in the clip is about 2 mins drive from where I'm typing this) I'd like to see the clip, but can't find any reference to it either here or on youtube. Anyone got a link? Sorry if this is old news.

    Just watched the video. Apart from the session of coming onto the Motorway and Over/Undertaking at stupid speeds - the rest of the show was filmed in car parks. Hardly dangerous driving, and he went out of his way to film it all in industrial estates/car parks.

    I don't condone the Motorway driving bit, but boardsies have a tendacy to do a Maud Flanders on the likes of this "Oh won't someone think of the Children" ...

    To be honest, I think its the motorway bits that people are reporting him over, a lot of his diffing was done on public roads as well - not just car parks. The motorway stuff is exceptionally dangerous driving. He has another video on YouTube where he tests out his new diff in his 325i - in his housing estate.

    The sadder part is, those videos look like they took some time to edit and produce. There is absolutely no excuse for his road behaviour, nor his lack of VRT on an imported car which in effect every PAYE worker is subsidising...

    :mad:

    what a dipsticks, it must be easy enough to find this car specially with this reg

    and i wouldn't call them boyracers either which gonna get hit again by media

    but what you expect when previous video makers cut outside Mulingar got away with 1200 euro fine and possibly will take garda to court for providing video tape to RTE. I am not sure if they even got the points.

    The gardai should find out who he's insured with in Lithuania and email them with a link to the clip. They might find it interesting.

    Surely you mean his cars (plural) Killian? That is his reg plate - M3 TME or whatever - he was trying to flog it when he bought the car. His 325i is still on Lithuanian plates...


  • Moderators, Politics Moderators Posts: 41,233 Mod ✭✭✭✭Seth Brundle


    It is my understanding that the 'cops' are quite aware of him!
