Last night a Bus Éireann driver was effectively kidnapped at knifepoint when somebody got on his bus and threatened to embed a sharp object into his skull if he did not allow him to go to Drogheda. The passenger had a false bus pass and had been challenged by the driver. The driver complied with all emergency procedures, yet the police who were meant to be at Drogheda never arrived.

This is just one in a long litany of incidents of attacks on bus and rail workers. What is the Minister going to do about it?
