An Garda Síochana come across potentially 'catastrophic' scene in Kilkenny

The Roads Policing Unit of An Garda Síochana prevented a potentially dangerous situation on the outskirts of Kilkenny City in recent days.

A pile of bales were 'tilted sufficiently to make it a huge hazard to other road users,' according to a garda spokesperson.

"The driver was ordered to rectify it immediately and was also issued a FCN for 51a, due consideration of other road users," they continued.

"The consequences of this load becoming dislodged could be catastrophic, especially for a cyclist or pedestrian."
