So it's not like Netflix or Audible where I can choose to get rid of those.

And I totally agree, obviously, about public transport.

I'm in an area where...

I do not have the option of either a bus or a train.

I would have to physically, I would have to drive to even get the bus and then I'd have to park my car up for the day or I'd have to maybe drive, get a bus, get a train.

You know, I'm not on a connected route.

So there's that issue.

And also I do think for women as well, there's an issue of safety because I work on Talbot Street, even though we're constantly being told by minister after minister that Dublin is a safe city.

If I want to get from my home to work physically,

First of all, it's more time efficient to hop in the car.

And second of all, it's safer because I'm not going to be hanging around Talbot Street or bus hours at night or walking up to O'Connell Street to get a bus.

I'm sorry.

But of course, if you say that in Ireland, people get, oh, you're... Yeah, well, I mean, I don't want to start a Leo-style urban-rural argument here because we're all friends now again after that.

But disproportionately, it is country dwellers that are affected by this.

And it's a lovely idea that the roads are going to be equitable.

And, you know, as somebody, as the press that was on yesterday said, we'll share the love by, you know, scattering the tolls.

But I mean...

I'd say that's share the pain, not share the love.

When they did the study, they actually did it.

First of all, they did it in a controlled environment, so I don't advise anybody doing this in a restaurant because you get the hand taken off you.
