Speeding stop just the start of problems for 'dangerous' driver in Offaly

A driver in Offaly has landed themselves a court date after breaking a number of road traffic laws at the weekend.

An Offaly Roads Policing Unit was out and about on Sunday, May 15, around West Offaly when they detected a driver speeding and overtaking on a solid white line.

That was just the start of their problems as gardaí say they were "eventually stopped and arrested for dangerous driving."

They said the driver "subsequently failed a roadside test for drugs."

They will now be faced with a court appearance.
