Gardaí seized a pickup truck after it turned away from a checkpoint in Laois

Laois Gardaí seized a pickup truck after it turned away from a garda checkpoint. 

“Abbeyleix Gardai were conducting a checkpoint this week in Borris In Ossory when they observed this vehicle turn away from the checkpoint.

It was stopped a short time later and it was discovered that this dangerous manoeuvre was performed by the driver as the tax had expired since 2023,” Gardaí said on social media. 

Garda said the driver was issued with a fine and the pickup was seized.
