A full house of offences resulted in fines totalling €460, three penalty points and a mandatory court appearance for no insurance.

Kildare gardaí said: “Road Traffic Legislation is in place to protect all road users. Choosing to ignore them or in this case fly below the radar puts lives at risk and ultimately leads to prosecution.

“An Garda Síochána Kildare will continue to proactively target uninsured and illegal drivers on our roads.”
