Isn't the world gone mad. Gardai out harassing young lads trying to earn a few notes delivering curry yet there was two shootings in broad daylight on one day up above in Dublin last week.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

Same goes for open dealing of gear in the city center,anywhere near O'Connell St or the Quays the bogies are there all every day doing their thing in broad daylight but that's too awkward for them to deal with so the relentless pursuit of the motorist continues unabated.

Better in the open for monitoring purposes, Marky. Hamsterdam as the lads knew it in The Wire.

Gardaí target nightlife figure they believe is directing rickshaw drug dealing scene http://jrnl.ie/4146209

Maybe they could put a few of these on the back of a tow truck!

You need commercial insurance to do deliveries in your private bike or car.It cost at least double so technically your not insured if ya don't have it.If one of them Deliveroo lads plough into yer taxi uninsured you're paying for it.

I wonder if , by any chance was it the roads policing unit ( traffic corps) that were operating the roadside checkpoint. If it were then why aren’t you praising the particular Garda unit for doing the job that they are supposed to do, it’s like the guy who gets caught at 80 in a50 zone , “ ah sure I was only a little bit over the limit, why aren’t you catching someone else for something and let me off”.
Trying to make a bit of a point that there’s different units in the Garda, so why do you complain when you see a particular unit doing the job their tasked to do.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of those delivery guys are working way more than their student visas allow.Also the same gimps who pilot..the rickies are probably living with the Deliveroo drivers in rented gaffs around town.There might be some extra dealing that they never accounted for.

There might be some extra dealing?

Plenty of them knocking about..3 lads with the same name working for 3 security companies living on Blessington St...called once to drop one to work and his name was fairly strange...happened again following Sunday and a different fella with the same name getting dropped to IBM in Ballycoolin. When a different chap got in the following week I decided the Irish were entirely stupid being law-abiding. He was working in Microsoft Leopardstown Retail Park, I think,,,long time ago. About 30 of them in a 5 bedroom kip owned by the one and only.

There's a big 6 bed gaff on the new Cabra road filled with at least 30 Brazillians.Every few weeks I see new ones with suitcases and following Google maps trying to find it.I think some of them are operating them like hotels with loadsa bunk beds.

Another small one on Ardee street with ten or twelve in bunk beds.
