Ballyshannon gardai nabbed a driver who turned the wrong kind of clock back.
A van was seized by officers in the Ballyshannon area.
Upon further inspection of the vehicle's commercial vehicle roadworthiness test (CVRT) information, gardai discovered something of a mismatch.
The mileage didn't quite add up and gardai found that the odometer of the van had been turned back by over 22,000km.
A garda spokesperson said: “It is illegal to interfere or engage another person to interfere with an odometer under the Road Traffic Act, 2014. The matter will now be investigated further.”
