Published 3 weeks, 3 days ago
Description
There's been an increase of over 10% in the number of garda checkpoints conducted in Clare and Tipperary in the space of a year.
Data from An Garda Síochána's PULSE system shows there were 1,043 checkpoints in the Clare/Tipperary division been July and September of last year which was up 11% on the same period of 2024.
This was despite checkpoints falling by 7.5% nationwide in the three-month stretch.
Ireland South Fianna Fáil MEP and member of the EU Transport Committee, Cynthia Ní Mhurchú, says there's a good chance anyone breaking the rules of the road in this county will be caught.
