I drive to arklow every morning join the m50 at finglas and yea your right the one at the toll southbound is decapitated and the other is in a 60 temp zone because of the works. Thats the only 2 I do see, I know northbound just before the end of the motorway there is one and one nearly opposite.So 4 in total.
Why are you planning a gumball rally

The one northbound towards the toll is dead too (dunno if that's the one you're calling Tallaght).

A lof of the traffic corp seem to be a shower of revenue generating wasters alright. I regularly see them at the entry onto East Link toll bridge - as you head away from the port along the new 3 lane road they're sitting just at the bridge nailing anyone doing over 50kmh. I even saw 3 gardai with 2 speed cameras there last week!!!!

I've a mate who's a detective and he said they are the bain of his life - because the traffic corp generate such bad feeling with the public it makes his job a lot harder - personally I have a lot of sympathy for the garda doing the hard yards but I've no time for the traffic corp

I was out drinking one night with a cop mate of mine and he got one of his workmates who was just finishing duty to drop us home, your man was in uniform but drivign his own car. He was bombing it through the suburbs of cork city but spotted a cop car in the distance and said 'sh1t its the corp', and crawled like a mouse (do mice crawl?) past them. I said I thought they'd say nothing to you cause you're one of them and he said they're a totally different outfit and would hang a gaurd quicker than the public.
