GARDAÍ in Lifford detected two motorists driving while under the influence.

Officers from the Letterkenny Roads Policing Unit were conducting a mandatory intoxicant testing checkpoint in the Lifford area last night.

One driver was arrested for drink driving while another was arrested for drug driving having tested positive for cannabis.

A spokesperson for An Garda Síochána said: “When will the message start to sink in? It is never OK to drive whilst under the influence of alcohol or drugs.”
