Are they actually serious? They really do have no regard for other peoples safety. This is a road where there was a fatal accident only a few weeks ago. A notoriously dangerous stretch of road. What planet are these people living on?

Planet Cork.

Saw them at it on the old Dublin Rd one Saturday morning near the Horse & Jockey.

Lets just say what i was driving was bigger than their sulkies and they got out of the way sharpish!

Its normal practice for them, block the road and race away.

Saw it on the Waterford/Tramore road on a busy Sunday morning last year -the horses didn't shock me it was the cars following 2 abreast with young children hanging out the windows.

Why is anyone surprised?
Thisn is just one in a long littany if such incidents - they have no regard whatsoever for anyone and this is getting worse. They are completely brazen these days. This is what years of liberal clueless pro-ethnic minority groups have created. I bet Pavee Point and Mr. Collins wont have anything to say on this.

Wait and see what happens now. Instead of banning it, impounding everything they saw on the camera and jailing those involved, the government under pressure from some fvcking lobby group will buy a stretch of land at taxpayers expense and put down a road for them to do it.

In my home town of Trim they had a halting site for years on the edge of the town. The kids would occasionally go to school and when they did turn up they were nothing but disruptive. The entire town would have to shut down then if there was a wedding or funeral because of the trouble they caused. The council then built permanent parking spaces across the road from the existing halting site with wash facilities, etc. They thanked the tax payer by protesting outside Noel Dempseys house saying this wasn’t good enough for them, the same people who lived in caravans their whole lives. They moved in anyway burned their ‘vans and over the years trashed the facilities built for them. Since the recession and the building collapse what happens. New houses have been built for them on the same site. Yes whole houses again at the tax payers expense. And here I am working like an eejit.
