I've been tempted to report her to the Gardai on several occasions, and one of these days I will before she is the cause of a serious accident.

I saw her parked up outside Dairygold in Mallow a few weeks ago and she was trying to get onto the road, talk about an ordeal,edging on and then stopping due to traffic nearly 200 metres away from her.

If I catch a break at the cross before Blarney and I can sometimes overtake her around Blarney Business Park.

I've regularly seen several cars having to overtake her on that 50k stretch from Blarney into Shanakill as her driving is almost at a standstill on that stretch, a tractor would be driving faster!

GoneHome wrote: » Yes that's the route she takes from Mallow and then turns left at Western Road heading towards UCC, drives an 08 Toyota Corolla. I only ever come across her in the mornings between 7.30 and 8.00 on various parts of the N20, not sure what time she does the return journey.
