Galway gardai discovered a dangerous situation involving a mother and her kids, leading to fines and a warning for others on the road
Galway: This week, gardai made a shocking find when they stopped a mother driving with her two kids. It was a dangerous scene that needed immediate attention.
While on patrol, officers spotted something alarming. They saw a child standing between the front seats, waving at them. That’s not something you see every day!
To make matters worse, neither the mother nor the other child was wearing a seatbelt. It was a recipe for disaster. So, the officers pulled her over right away.
They issued her a hefty fine of €360 on the spot. That’s three fines of €120 each! The mother was also hit with three penalty points on her license.
Gardai took to social media to share this incident. They wanted to remind everyone about the importance of safety on the road. It’s a serious issue that can’t be ignored.
In their post, they explained how they noticed the child standing up and the others without seatbelts. They stressed that this kind of behavior is unacceptable.
Last week, there was another surprising incident in Connacht. A young tractor driver was pulled over after a tip-off from the public. Turns out, the driver was just 15!
That driver had no license, insurance, or tax. It’s a reminder that road safety is crucial for everyone, no matter what vehicle you’re in.
