Our reporter approached rickshaw drivers working in the capital and each of them confirmed they had drugs for sale.
These recordings reveal how the drivers are selling weed, cocaine and pills while working on our capital's streets.

When asked to show the pills, one of the drivers lifted up the seat of his rickshaw to reveal where he was keeping his supply.

Rickshaw drivers selling drugs? That's disgusting. There's so many of them though. Where? Which one? Y'know so they can be avoided.....

Why not ask the driver and if they have some then avoid them and go to the next one.

No, that would be "You won't believe what City Centre rickshaw workers are selling!" and then three separate pages with a two sentence captioned image on each not telling you anything.

The story is in the url, which is handy.

Did they just chain it to their segway yokes? That'd be amazing to see.

Didn't click on it but wasn't aware that we used class A, B, C etc. as classifications etc. I was under the impression we used schedule 1, 2 etc controlled substances to describe.

Or maybe the indo will apply UK law when deciding this case.

Bloody foreigner's selling our drugs...

They should just get rid of'em already. They've no license nor do they have any form of insurance. They're more of a nuisance when on paths than cyclists as well.

Galway got rid of them three years ago, I had a few close shaves with them in the street.

These guys sound brilliant. Drugs, lift home and a hot shave. You'll get home in a hoop but you'll look great.

A real entrepreneur. Fair play!

Didn't know they were doing that but not shocked to hear.
Dare I be blunt a lot of them are ****ing shady ****ers as is.

That's been going on years. Fella in my class in college used to drive a rickshaw in the late nineties/earlies 2000's and he would sell stuff, and get kickbacks for bringing guys to a brothel.
