BREAKING: Tipperary gardaí catch three cars doing ridiculous speeds during major operation

In the first few hours of the 24-hour National Slow Down Day, GoSafe checked the speed of 192,013 vehicles and detected 453 vehicles travelling in excess of the applicable speed limit.

Examples of motorists putting themselves and others at risk include:

• 110km/h in a 100km/h Zone on the N24 Woodrooff Clonmel Tipperary

• 69km/h in a 50km/h Zone on the Limerick Road Tipperary Tipperary

• 74km/h in a 60km/h Zone on the Waterford Road Clonmel Tipperary

An Garda Síochána continues to appeal to drivers to comply with speed limits in order to reduce the number of speed related collisions, save lives and reduce injuries on our roads.
