It wasn't only the calendars changing last night at midnight - it was a wheel!

On the stroke of Midnight this morning at Lower Main Street, Letterkenny, Garda Pádraig McFadden and Probationer Garda Henry Barrett came to the aid of a driver who had a flat tyre.

"Changing over tyres at the changeover of the year," An Garda Siochana posted.  "It was a case of 'out with the old and in with the new' and the driver went onwards on their journey into 2026 happily and safely in no time! What better way to start the New Year than with a good deed!"
