Waterford Gardaí have stopped a driver going almost double the speed limit with no NCT, Insurance, NCT or Tax.

The car was caught doing 91kp/h in a 50kp/h zone and also had two dangerously defective tires.

"The other evening, Waterford Gardaí detected this car being driven 91kp/h in a 50kp/h zone.

The car was uninsured, had no valid NCT or tax.

When inspected by Gardaí, it also had two dangerously defective tyres."

"The car was impounded there and then.

Its driver was fined on the spot for the speeding offence as well as for the defective tyres.

A court date will be in the post for driving without insurance."
