Two drug-driving arrests were also made on Saturday by Letterkenny Roads Policing Unit.

The first driver tested positive for cannabis today, with the second driver testing positive for benzodiazepines and cannabis. They also had no driving licence and their car was seized.

A Garda spokesperson said: “These drivers will now have to face the consequences of their poor decisions,” An Garda Siochana warned.

“Driving while under the influence of drugs is irresponsible and dangerous.

“Please have regard for your own safety and the safety of other road users. Never drive under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol. Help us save lives on the roads.”
