Gardai have been out in force this August bank holiday weekend, targeting a number of offences including drink driving.
Officers have been conducting Mandatory Intoxicant Testing checkpoints in several locations, including Louth where over 325 drivers were tested for drugs and alcohol yesterday with six arrests.
The morning after is a particularly dangerous period for drink drivers, and gardai say this is reflected in the number of early-morning checkpoints they will be conducting.
