    Folks

    My bike was stolen from Coolmime train station today. Unlikely I know, but if anyone happens to hear/see anyone on the bike or looking to sell the bike, please DM me.

    Any other advice on possibly recovering it also welcomed!

    Sorry to hear this.

    Tweet or message https://x.com/stolenbikesdub - that account has >4000 followers.

    Question: Was it locked with the cable lock in the photo? That's a lock that could be easily ripped open.

    Terribly sad for their families, glad to see someone has been arrested. That pedestrian crossing is so dangerous, cars break the lights there so often. Obviously I don't know for sure if that is what happened last night.

    Agreed completely. I've crossed there a few times and even with the pedestrian light green I would still be watching cars coming to make sure they slow down .

    Time will tell what happened . I was thinking someone leaving the scene would be an indication of guilt but time will tell . Hopefully they find some dashcam footage .

    It is a dangerous road and wouldn't surprise me to see speedbumps in along that stretch at some stage.

    I've been stopped at the red light there and had cars behind go into the bus lane to go around me and go through the red light.

    I hope a stop is put to this, now that 2 innocent lives have been lost. It's being going on for too long. Anyone breaking lights should be banned from driving , screw penalty points. We've seen the consequences of these actions.

    Nothing will happen. There is a well known anecdote that if you want to kill someone and get away with it, use a car.

    The lack of enforcement for decades has made drivers complacent, knowing that the chances of being punished are next to zero.

    I frequently report driving infractions to TrafficWatch but Blanchardstown Gardai take months to follow up, if at all. This is not fair on the drivers as they won't remember the incident (though I generally only report when I have video footage).

    The Gardai may be good when someone is killed but the Courts don’t help:

    The man badly hurt in an assault outside the Clonsilla Inn last Sunday has ,very sadly, died.

    The Guards have made an arrest but are seeking any witnesses and for a "medical professional" who rendered assistance at the scene to contact them in Blanch.

    Another senseless late night altercation resulting in death in this City, may he rest in peace.

    I've seen them use Lidl as an overflow when the church car park is full but at that hour it's closed.
