“Laois Roads Policing Unit out and about stopped a vehicle following an ANPR activation for no tax. Driver was also disqualified from driving. The vehicle had no insurance or NCT,” Gardai said.
“Driver failed road side drug test for cocaine and cannabis. Small quantity of drugs found in car,” Gardai added.
