Video: Luas releases footage of near misses with cyclists

The Luas operator said, “The trams are very much a part of Dublin’s transport infrastructure and this type of cyclist behaviour is irresponsible.”

VIDEO FOOTAGE FROM CCTV cameras on the front of Luas trams shows collisions and near misses between cyclists and trams.

The Luas operator Transdev released the video as part of its campaign #BeTramAware.

It says the campaign focuses on showing cyclists how close they can come to being seriously injured when breaking red lights.

This video shows some of the irresponsible cyclist behaviour that Luas drivers see on a daily basis and which puts both cyclists and Luas passengers in danger.

Transdev added, “The trams are very much a part of Dublin’s transport infrastructure and this type of cyclist behaviour is irresponsible.”
