On 1 March 2021, Gemma Greene, 28, of Coolock, Dublin, was driving a white Mercedes on the M50 motorway at junction 9 northbound when gardaí observed her driving dangerously. She failed to stop and continued at speeds up to 200km/h, live-streaming the pursuit on her phone, while Garda Sergeant Darren Blackwall had to take evasive action to avoid being struck after leaving his patrol car to deploy a stinger.

On 19 March 2025, Judge Martin Nolan sentenced her to two years in prison and disqualified her from driving for four years.
