Irish motorists have been warned to look out for melting tar on the roads as the country is set to bake in 30C heat during the mini-heatwave over the coming days.
The warning was issued by the Road Safety Authority (RSA) on Thursday who said that the impact of high temperatures on roads can make tar slick and dangerous.
This means that motorists should exercise caution and to drive slower in the extreme heat as softer road surfaces can cause longer braking distances.
