  1. It’ll get trialled somewhere that isn’t a problem area and scrapped when it “shows no significant improvement”.

  2. If we put these in Cork City we could fund a Children’s Hospital on the f**king moon.

    Let more than 2 cars through per green light and people might stop running it, somw lights in this country are really poorly timed . Not excusing running reds but i can see why

    I was on a walk yesterday in Dublin and saw four red lights broken in an hour. Will be much appreciated to see these people penalised.

  5. Yes, please!

    Or will they be like those Dublin Bus cameras? Empty ‘deterrent boxes’.

    About time, not just Dublin though. A few of these scattered across every larger population centre would be worthwhile. But also get the timings of these lights right too eh?

    The crossing by St Audoen’s Park near The Brazen Head on the way down to the quays is one of the worst I’ve seen anywhere for this, you have drivers running solid reds, beeping at pedestrians who are trying to cross. Consistently. It’s gone totally out of control since Covid, I’d love to see some consequences for people.

    There are a few junctions on the Chapelizod bypass that could really do with these. It’s like a free for all

    These were pretty common in Australia. Generated 100s of millions in revenue. When I first got there got stung twice, near $1000 in fines. Learnt my lesson quickly.

    I’m sure at some stage without spending anything I’ll see which junctions have these cameras – I hope it’s the busy ones – what is peculiar and it happens all the time – Pedestrian push button, Pedestrian goes anyway – Drivers waiting with a Green Man for no reason.

    They need to change the light sequence to have parallel pedestrian crossing during a green. The light sequences are painfully slow in Ireland.

    They’ll need to add in a salmon colored light as well as the red one.

    Red lights are currently considered optional by a lot of motorists. I watched a double decker bus break one out by the airport earlier!
