Any one of us can tell you that calling to a family's door to deliver the news that their loved one has been killed in a road traffic collision is among our most difficult duties.
That experience never leaves you.
Please drive safely this weekend and slow down.

We were out on patrol in Courtown Co. Wexford when we issued the owner of this car a €150 fine for parking in a disabled bay without a permit or parking card - this will increase to €225 if not paid within 28 days.
Don't be a Karen.

Got two vehicles stopped in Gainsborough this evening with assistance from Lincolnshire Police Specialist Operations & Lincolnshire Police Dog Section first driver positive for cannabis & second driver positive for cannabis & cocaine. Both arrested & on route to custody for blood samples. #Fatal5 #SaferRoads #DGrp
We were alarmed that the driver was also disqualified from driving.
But a cardboard cut-out as a fake insurance disc was certainly one we don't see too often.
This car was seized and proceedings will now follow.

Why do we need a #SchoolStreet ?
👎Because Amazon delivery drivers park on the pavement. This means children are forced to walk in the road.
👍Having a School Street will create #SaferRoads around our school at pick up and drop off times.

Gardaí were holding a checkpoint at Rathangan, Co. Kildare when they spotted the driver of this car try to avoid them by turning into the driveway of a residence that wasn't theirs.
Turned out that the driver had never held a driving licence, and had no insurance.

Our push to make our roads safe will continue.
Anyone who is driving on the wrong side of the road would be dealt with legally by the Police

Even if you're careful, using a phone while driving takes all of your attention off the road so you're putting yourself and the lives of other people in danger by being distracted.
Have you done it and potentially caused a collision today?
Think about it.

Please drive safely this May bank holiday weekend.

Our Roads Policing Unit in Tipperary were checking for speed around Birdhill when they detected this young fella travelling 89km/h in a 50km zone.
An unaccompanied learner with no L-plates displayed and he failed a roadside drug test.
That's what we're up against.
