Madam, – So that’s how the Government is going to recoup all of the bank billions: by imposing traffic fines on motorists. Having just paid €80 and incurred two glorious penalty points for breaking an amber light, I have noticed a definite increased presence of the Garda Traffic Corp, usually in the oddest places, like that well-known wall of death on the N11: under the bridge at Belfield.
It’s good to know that Government diligence has us all operating strictly within the law. I hope Dermot Ahern does not cut back on the Traffic Corps’ fish quota as there seems to be an abundance of fish left in the barrel.
I now have four penalty points. How many do the financial terrorists who bankrupted the country have? – Yours, etc,
