Years ago, I was on a bus from the city centre to Glasnevin. There was a chap smoking crack halfway down the top desk. The next day, I called Dublin Bus to report it, and the response was “you’d be safe enough not sitting next to him”.

Once saw a lad on Bus Éireann take his socks off and hang them on the headrest in front of him and then proceed to take tinfoil and a lighter from his pocket and start boiling something. ( I presume heroin)
Couldn’t help but wonder as I moved from my seat at the back to the front that this is something that really could have waited.

Drug use seems to be somewhat commonplace on Dublin’s public transport. When I lived in Dublin you’d see it almost every other day. It’s usually weed or crack, but I did see heroin on one occassion. Didn’t take the Dart or Luas at night after that unless I had to

Relax. It’s not Blue Peter. I’m just having a relaxing smoke of crack.

>Two people were seen “shooting up” heroin on a train near Killester in May, while someone else was reported for using a bong near Booterstown in March.
“A bong near Booterstown” should be in a song

Dublin has become a bit of a kip over the last few years (still like dublin though 😭). Public transport has never really felt that safe apart from a few routes. Thank fuck I don’t live there but I’m down in dublin every couple of weeks.
Still, I get the odd hassle from feral teenagers or scumbags around Connolly. Living in drogheda actually feels a lot safer these days.
Hopefully the government starts taking it a bit more seriously soo

Wait there’s not always lads smoking crack or doing other drugs on the Dart? Huh? Thought that was a common occurrence because it’s been going on the majority of the time I’ve used it…

🤔🤔🤔 but how would you rank them against people talking loudly on their phones…

Cant even smoke a bit of crack on the dart anymore without a jaysis [journal.ie](http://journal.ie) article on you, the gentrification of this great city has gone too far. Next you’ll be wanting me to freebase an oat milk flat white at the back of the bus.
People doing hard drugs on public transport is a sign of a bustling metropolitan area

I’ve seen that on the Maynooth line a few times. Lots of people smoking joints though. All for legalisation, but seriously…

Jaysus, where was this clarion call 30 years ago? You couldn’t get on the old Cityswift 78A’s without crack being smoked at the back

When did people become so comfortable doing insanely illegal things in public, without a care in the world?

Wouldn’t be the first time it happened
