Dublin Bus Hijacked!

Just to remind people Tallaght has a larger population than Limerick! Any thoughts of cutting off transport to more than 100,000 people would cause chaos and would not make financial sense on the part of Dublin bus!

As I posted last night in the citizen's thread, it was an inbound 50 taken at Cork St. So the Tallaght nonsense is irrelevant except for being in AH obviously

A friend of mine was getting the bus to heuston station and he says you can barely see the driver because hes cab is completly covered with protective glass.

Glass is mostly see-through these days I think you'll find so the driver is fairly visible.

In Cork we have the number 2 to knocknaheeny and Mahon and for a time it had to be followed by an unmarked garda patrol car.Is the number 77 its dublin equivelent?

"Ya stole a bleedin 16, that doesn't go anywhere near my gaff!!"

:rolleyes:

But Judge, the reason my client took control of this bus was that he has a drug addiction and did not know what he was doing at the time, The failure lies with society for not allowing him to become a bus driver. It is against his human rights not to be allowed drive a bus. I believe we owe my client an apology and a substantial compensation payout. And a new bus for him too the poor little rascal.:pac:

Biggins · 11-01-2009 7:16pm

"...but your honour, my client just wanted to get home to see a biased RTE discussion on the Lisbon Treaty. The government insists strongly you let him off!"

"Aaa well, seeing as I'm a Bertie/Cowan fan and have my brown envelope this month... off ye go"

Maybe they were filming a new Speed movie and the actor got on the wrong bus.

I know thats a bit of a bold and sweeping statement and I don't think everybody should be punished, but if you remember back at school when the class d*ck did something and because he wouldn't own up, the whole class got punished, well the same should apply here and then the scum would be run out of the town (hopefully) by the good tax paying citizens who are sick of this s*it!

i must rather they keep all the scum in one spot tbh.

Why, are they using the likes of ''afaik'' and ''lol'' rather than ''real'' words?

Dublin Bus have in the past cut off services to west tallaght. They stop the routes at the square, so anyone who lives beyond there has to walk. While this doesn't effect all 100,000 people, it still effects a lot of people.

A 32-year-old man has appeared in court in connection with an assault on a Dublin bus driver at the weekend.
Mark Dwyer of Dolphin House in Dublin city faces two charges, one of assault and another of the unauthorised taking of a vehicle.
Garda Kevin Molyneux gave evidence of arrest, charge and caution at Dublin District Court this morning.
Mark Dwyer will appear again before the court this afternoon for a bail hearing.

There were about 15 passengers on board the 56A, which runs from Tallaght to Ringsend, when the bus was hijacked in the Liberties area between 9.30pm and 10pm on Saturday.
