And also there is technology.

And I know the former Garda commissioner wants to bring in more technology to help with this.

And, you know, there are, I think,

And concerns about people's privacy and the amount of kind of big brother cameras we would have around.

But even if you walk around Dublin city centre, I walk for about 90 minutes a day.

And honestly, the amount of times I almost get hit or my daughter almost gets hit by a scooter, a bike or a car because they've broken a red light is it's actually terrifying.

Yeah, I think there's probably some localised stuff with e-scooter use that's particularly egregious.

Because a lot of the e-scooter use, like the commuter use, yeah, there might be some bad behaviour, but it's generally people trying to get to work and get home in a way that's convenient, good for the environment and not that expensive.

So I think that's probably different to commuter.

the kind of hijinks or worse than that that's happening in e-scooters.

And I think there's probably a lot of community policing that needs to be done there.

Like, you know, I think the guards talk a lot about being able to pursue, but a lot of the time it's like, just get the address.

Like, you know how to do that.

And you have reason because there's policing reasons to do that.

OK, well, like, can these young fellas, would their energy be better placed somewhere else on a bike park that has been built for, you know, or my consistent view that maybe we should have built a whitewater rafting so there could be adrenaline, the adrenaline junkies could get in a canoe and go across it.

I think there is community solutions there.

Yeah, and there's some pretty eye-watering numbers.

So 521 people waiting to be moved in any given week.

And that is up about 100 people.
