    was off today and hit the M50 at around 4:30 around sandyford and left
    it at M1 (to Belfast) junction at 6pm . Now sometimes the train I get can be late or lately just cancelled because of staff shortage but thank god I never have to go through
    the M50 in rush hour.. as far as I can see it will never get any better and I actually saw someone jump the lanes 6 times in front of me but was never 40 yards away from where I was driving.. it is just chaotic and life is way too short to spend a few hours every day on that road to hell

    Drive through Limerick almost on a daily basis myself, and while we have some serious jams on the dock road, ennis road and childers road on a daily basis, I have to admit their quiet bareable compared to the M50, and were getting a tunnel that will take so many of these cars out of the city and all...

    Only been on the M50 a hanful of times, the first time I was just enjoying it staring at all the building etc, the novelty was long gone by the 2nd time, a disgrace of a situation indeed

    A crash northbound at Ballinteer didn't help matters.

    These geniuses think that barrier-free tolling is going to solve the problem. That's not good enough. The only type of tolling we should have is toll-free tolling. It works on most of the roads around the country after all.
