Drunkenness on the buses

Madam, - I am writing to inquire whether Dublin Bus could consider banning extremely drunk men from their bus services.

Madam, - I am writing to inquire whether Dublin Bus could consider banning extremely drunk men from their bus services.

Once on the bus, these men slur their way through sexual harassment, racial prejudices and whatever song they are thinking about.

Their presence on the bus makes the journey for everyone else, especially women, very uncomfortable, if not downright frightening.

I realise, of course, that banning these men from the bus service is unrealistic.

However, perhaps Dublin Bus could consider addressing this problem in another way, whether it be through security on the buses, not allowing passengers who have passed a specified level of intoxication on to the bus, etc.

Dublin Bus's consideration in this matter would be greatly appreciated. - Yours, etc,
