Default Shane Ross on the Late Late

Im turning into an old person, sitting in watching the Late Late.
Anyway, Shane Ross is on tv now talking about his solutions to the Dublin traffic problem.

To summerise:

1) Open the Toll Bridge all of the time.
2) Provide free public transport
3) Allow cars with 3 or more occupants to use the bus lanes.

While it is good to see this kind of discussion on prime time tv, there are many flaws in his ideas. For starters, I doubt the existing public transport system could cope if a large number switched from their cars and secondly, who would police the bus lanes
