Dundalk Gardaí seize car with no insurance, tax or NCT
Dundalk Gardaí also detected another driver going through a red light
Drivers in Dundalk are being warned about the serious consequences of getting behind the wheel without insurance after two vehicles were recently seized by Gardaí.
Dundalk Roads Policing Unit (RPU) said both drivers were detected driving without insurance, with Gardaí also identifying other road traffic offences.
In the first case, a driver was detected texting on a mobile phone while driving on the busy N53 Dundalk to Castleblayney road. Gardaí said the vehicle had no insurance, tax or NCT, and it was subsequently seized.
In the second case, a driver was detected going through a red light. Gardaí said the vehicle was also uninsured and was seized.
Dundalk RPU issued a blunt warning to motorists: “No insurance whilst driving – you better find an alternative way home if we see you.”
