Gardai up and down the country are carrying out checkpoints on different roads every day to ensure drivers are abiding by the Irish law at all times.
Although speed, tax, insurance, and NCT checks are done regularly, some drivers aren’t aware of the vast array of other checkpoints they can get caught at.
From being asked questions about social welfare, to having the petrol in your tank tested, drivers can be required to prove a number of things on the side of the road when stopped by officers.
