Former Dunshaughlin garda in RTE traffic series

Former Dunshaughlin-based garda Sean MacSeoin is one of the members of the force taking part in 'Traffic Blues", RTE"s fly-on-the-wall series about the work of the Garda Traffic Corps which shows just how dangerous and badly behaved we really are on our roads. The six-part observational series, 'Traffic Blues", which screens on Sunday nights, shines a light on six months of the life of the Traffic Corps at all levels and across the country, but primarily in three divisions - the Dublin Metropolitan division, based in Dublin Castle; the Louth division, taking in stations in Drogheda and Dundalk, and the Donegal division, focusing on Burnfoot and Letterkenny. Garda MacSeoin, who was a member of the regular unit at Dunshaughlin, transferred to the Dublin Traffic Corps a while ago. Over six months, guards from the three units were accompanied by a film crew as they went about their daily business of enforcing the laws of the road throughout the country. Incidents from their daily business were combined with the relevant footage from ground, mobile and airborne cameras to reveal the situations the traffic division has to deal with and the often shocking attitudes and the behaviour of Irish drivers across the country.
