A garda road safety ‘Day of Action’ is currently in place across counties Donegal, Leitrim and Sligo.
Today’s operation will consist of high visibility rolling checkpoints and patrols from 9am to 9pm.
This will be led by Roads Policing Units based at Donegal town, Letterkenny and Buncrana Garda Stations as well as Carrick On Shannon and Sligo.
The operation will focus on the four key lifesaver offences of:

An Garda Síochána urges all road users to stay safe this Bank Holiday weekend.
“The overall objective of today’s operation is to reduce the number of fatal and serious injury collisions and to keep people safe as they take to the roads this weekend,” a garda spokesperson said.
