Like a boss..
Some poor tourist in a rental taking a wrong turn!
Tourist.
Every year – and I bet it’s someone looking for the Westbury. I stopped someone driving a rental car down Duke Street once; their satnav was sending them down to Grafton Street and right onto Harry Street i.e. through all the pedestrians and the women selling flowers
wayward culchie
Even the hairiest, smelliest, bootcut wearingest of culchies knows what a Grafton Street is.
You speak English good Mr Fex.
Thus spake you
ha! bootcut wearingist!
Bonus: tan square toe slip-ons
… with black woolly socks – very sexy indeed.
You had me a square toe…
Rental Car
Definitely a rental sticker over the rear wiper is the big giveaway
Hertz
…right in the feels.
He, he – you’re on form today Hoop!
i saw the wexford plate and immediately thought it was ivan yates exercising his perceived ‘entitlements’ again.
This is odd. Never seen a car driving down Grafton St before, and then I saw one on Monday evening, didnt look like a rental, 2006 Cork reg. Is a SatNav directing people up there or something?
Apple maps, maybe?
Stupidity maybe?
They really need to stop people driving down Suffolk street now that it is closed off at graft on street, before people could keep going down Nassau street. See someone stuck there nearly everyone I walk past.
The most offensive thing in that shot is the endless spread of horrible Chinese granite (NO offence, Chairman) that DCC seems intent on laying on every available surface. Neither authentic not sympathetic.
Oh yes, the car is surely a rental with a dodgy satnav.
That’s Iberian granite on the ‘road’ part, and Wicklow stone on the ‘path’ sections, actually. Not that that makes it look any better of course.
Excellent.
It’s got to be a rental. Loads of WX are rentals.
yeah they are registered there when they come off the ferries i’d guess
No, they are registered there because Hertz Ireland is HQ’d in Wexford. And VW’s come in through Cork anyway….
I’d imagine there is someone walking behind them ringing a bell saying “shame” repeatedly *
* Game of Thrones reference alert
wahey, only reading the title now. Go easy on me….
maybe it’s a Google car that identifies as a pedestrian?
Custo, could you use the more accepted ‘vehicle’ and stop appropriating words like ‘car’
From the reaction on here, it’s ok to be a terrible driver if it’s a rental car.
Gonna get my ass to Hertz tomorrow morning and terrorise yee all on the road over the coming weeks… nowt you can say, because I’m in a rental biatches!!
Remember printed maps? Remember those? I still use those. Either those or my cop on.
The driver was beaten and tasered after being dragged out of the vehicle close to Butlers Chocolate Cafe. Is in a bad way now and holiday ruined so perhaps not the time for jokes.
Surely you jest?
Whatever about driving up a pedestrianised street, did the Guards have a word about the obscured number plate?
The same care stopped me at the lights on Upper Stephen Street at ~5pm looking for the “Grafton Hotel”. I directed him (American) to the Grafton Capital, but he was clearly (still) hopelessly lost
