Laois Gardaí usually stop on the busy M7 motorway to get motorists off the busy road who shouldn't be on it but this time they were delighted to get a driver and her passengers back motoring again.
Laois Offaly Gardaí issued a statement after coming to the aid four young women who were forced to stop on the Dublin / Limerick road on Sunday, May 30.
"Garda Kenneally of Laois Roads Policing Unit came to the assistance of these damsels in distress after their car suffered a blow out on the M7 this evening.
"Following a quick tutorial, Garda Kenneally changed the tyre and had these ladies back safely on their journey home after a day hill walking in lovely Laois," said the post.
