It’s Slow Down Day and the Gardai have been out since early morning to clamp down on speeding.

It started at 7am this morning and in the first hour and a half more than 18,000 vehicles were monitored nationwide.

44 were found to be breaking the speed limit – one of those was on the Kilkenny to Carlow road where someone was detected doing 74 kph in a 50 kph zone.
