People like that getting away barely with a slap on their wrists but God forbid you don’t pay the TV tax… What a joke of a legal system we got.
How the fuck Do you get two additional driving offenses after hitting a child?
I’d just surrender my license at that point.
She actually tried to blame the mother of the girl she knocked down
Had to google this but some countries with legalised weed have impairment levels set at between 1.0 ng/ml and 5.0 ng/ml. So she didn’t smoke a couple days ago, she was blazed when she hit a kid
The head on her….
The “tested positive for cannabis” is irrelevant. I mean that in the following way, she was clearly not high even it showed up in your system and she can’t use as an excuse for acting like a cunt. She clearly just is one and a dangerous one to have driving a car.
I was almost ready to defend the “tested positive” part til i read the article.
We have a ridiculous policy of zero tolerance so you may lose your license even if you smoked two days ago and arent even impaired.
In this case she was clearly fucked though and had no business being behind a wheel.
And probably went home to roll another joint because of stress (not serious). Scumbag.
Please tell me she will be banned from driving for a long period of time. If not, what’s the point?
I like how she blamed the girls mother for letting her cross ahead of her (the mother). “There could have been a bus coming.” Yes, or a reckless bitch.
They actually wheeled out the had a bad childhood defense…
What about the little girl you smacked with your car speeding up a bus lane. Cunt.
The little girl needs weekly injections to stop blood cloths. This women should have to pay for all expenses involved.
She was posting selfies from her car less than a month later, she doesnt give a shit she almost killed a child
And I’m sure Tusla will very proactive in protecting her four children from a mother found to be using, and driving under the influence, illegal substances.
Aw poor Charlene can’t afford to pay for the urine test. No problem paying for her cannabis though. Hopefully she will actually jail time & finally banned from driving.
I am always warning my kids, now teens, just because the man is green, does not mean it’s fully safe to cross. You have to assume the worst and still check. I actually saw an army truck break a pedestrian lights in Rathmines and hit a Man, thankfully the man was ok and survived.
The fking head on it. Maimed a child for life and tried to excuse it by blaming the Mother. The judicial system is a fkn joke.
How is knocking down and killing someone not manslaughter and then charged upped for being high. The charges against is a disgrace and complete injustice
I’m just in utter shock
The woman made every excuse under the sun not to acknowledge the harm she had done.
Difficult childhood, she’s in her 30s and mother herself
Two more driving offenses after HITTING a child.
The license should be revoked
Proving she had cannabis in her system is not proving she was under the influence at the time.
Gonna play devils advocate and say it was a urine test over a blood test because she said it was the night before. 21ng would not stay in your blood stream that long. THC in urine is different when detected in blood. Simply having it in your system while driving, even if ingested days ago, is still a crime. Doesn’t mean she was inebriated
The only thing she is excelling in in life is her use of filters on her social media. Wow!
I hate when cannabis gets the blame for stupid people. Cannabis stays in your system for 30 days. It makes no sense to have the above statement…
Runs down a child on a scooter, while blazed out of her skull on canabis, with EIGHT other driving offences to her name, and even tries to blame the mother.
Pure. Fucking. Scum.
She looks like a rat
“Charlene Lawlor (33) of Derry Road, Crumlin, Dublin 12, has eight previous road traffic convictions – two of which post-date this offence”
Hang on, am I reading this right… she’s gone on and picked up another two motoring convictions since this incident !!
Fucking lock her up!
Where the fuck are the cameras protecting bus lanes and traffic lights coupled with automatic fines already? This is cheep (~€30K per camera), effective, internationally proven technology that would pay for itself near instantly given the unfortunate truth that this kind of scumbag is far too prevalent in our cities. Driving has become abysmal in our cities and absolutely zero seems to be getting done to address it.
