Gardai have warned road users of a change in the speed limit for some drivers after one person was caught out and now must appear in court.
The Naas Roads Policing Unit was in operation on the M7 on Friday and spotted a van towing a loaded trailer travelling at a speed of 130km/h.
Road conditions were already treacherous with the rain and although the driver was just 10km/h over the normal speed limit, those towing a loaded trailer must abide by a much lower speed limit.
