Irish Traffic corps new series

[corkguykev]

This past Sunday, the Irish channel RTE 1 started a new documentary series about the Irish traffic corps here....

RTÉ Television - Traffic Blues

I was able to "acquire" it online and posted it up on my other youtube account.

A pretty good show actually and we had expected it to be a load of "speed kills slow down." drivel that we usually hear from the Road Safety Authority (RSA) here .

It will be 6 episodes in total and I had to cut them down into 3 parts each to fit them safely within the 10 minute time limit on youtube.

Here is the first episode.

Part 1...

Hopefully, it will give you guys an insight into road policing here and I hope you enjoy it also.

I will be updating this thread with the next episode as soon as they post it on the playback site. Hopefully on Sunday night here so watch this space .....



P.S. Big props to eire05 for the help on this one also. Couldn't have done it without your help mate .

''I can smell drink off you. Ok?"

I cringed when I saw that "smell drink?" yeah I had a sprite earlier

Do you mean part 3? Yes, it was a marksman. It also had the 2X magnification scope.
