Fair play to Dublin Bus, they have performed well in this in my view.  Must be scarey as f**k for the drivers when they lose control of the bus. 


Absolutely. Very tough to drive in that, not to mention dangerous.

Presume more of the same is expected for tomorow?

There are delays on the Green line Luas from St Stephen's Green to Sandyford today due a technical fault at Milltown.

The Luas Red Line is operating a full line service from The Point Stop to Tallaght - but there are delays.

The Connolly stop remains closed.

My business is buses, and 99% of our business is night time, Ive grounded the fleet since midnight Saturday resulting in no income.
 
The reason - I dont want to have to live with the consequnces of one of my buses overturning and killing all occupants, and in such a situation I could well be charged with corporate manslaughter for operating a service in dangerous conditions against the advice of the Gardai etc.
 
 
Ye its a disgraceAngry

Apparantely the buses are not able to make it over the bridge at North Strand...

It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.
