Kilkenny gardaí 'out in force' with local checkpoints
Gardaí erected checkpoints at various locations across County Kilkenny
The Roads Policing Unit of An Garda Síochana in Kilkenny ‘were out in force’ over the Bank Holiday locally with checkpoints across the county.
According to a social media post by Kilkenny gardaí, there were a number of detections.
Two people were arrested for drug driving and three vehicles were seized.
Another driver was cautioned for driving with ‘shockingly bald tyres’ while an unaccompanied learner driver with an ‘improperly restrained small child’ and no NCT was intercepted by gardaí on their way to the motorway.
“To the vast majority of motorists who had things right, thank you,” a garda spokesperson said.
