Gardai from the Naas Roads Policing Unit were conducting a checkpoint in Rathangan, Co. Kildare, when they stopped a vehicle recently.
After carrying out some checks, gardai discovered the vehicle had avoided checkpoints for over three years as the car had not been taxed for 1104 days and had no valid NCT for two years.
Failure to display a current tax disc on your vehicle is considered a motoring offence and can result in a €60 fixed-charge fine issued by a traffic warden or a Garda.
