Kilkenny gardaí make example of 'poorly loaded' vehicle

Gardaí attached to Kilkenny/Waterford/Carlow have taken to social media to highlight an unsecure load that they encountered during a multi-agency checkpoint on Thursday.

"Please don't shed your load," gardaí said. "[That] was what came to mind when our Roads Policing Unit stopped more than one poorly loaded vehicle earlier during multi agency checkpoints carried out with our colleagues in customs.

"Seriously, secure your load. Also, several non-agricultural vehicles were detected with green diesel and three uninsured vehicles were seized."
