Eight drink-driving arrests made across Carlow and Kilkenny over Easter

Eight people were arrested on suspicion of drink-driving over the Easter Weekend between Carlow and Kilkenny.

Local Gardaí say three of those drivers were issued with a fixed charge penalty and penalty points.

Four drivers are waiting for an analysis of their tests, while one driver has been charged to appear before the court.

Gardaí say it’s clear that, unfortunately, some people still aren’t getting the message, ‘Never Ever Drink and Drive’.
