Episode Details

Cork’s e-scooter crackdown is falling short—with just 48 fines in the city and 25 in the county over two years, far below the national total of 1,600. Officials blame insufficient Garda resources, especially in busy areas, and note Dublin’s neighboring division issues six times more fines. Safety concerns mount as kids as young as 11 ride these machines, risking serious accidents. Gardaí are responding with education in schools and high-visibility patrols, collecting €3,650 in fines so far—but many say more enforcement and resources are urgently needed to balance convenience with public safety.
