Jims roofing 2008

WE DIDN’T know whether to laugh or cry when we saw this tweet from An Garda Síochána.

The Ennis Traffic Corps stopped a car on the M18 motorway earlier.

The car is so badly damaged it’s virtually impossible to tell the make and model of the car.

Even one of the rear tyres is missing, but one of the rear lights miraculously still works.

According to the Garda Twitter account, the driver had been involved in two collisions and kept driving.

When the car was pulled over by the Gardaí, it turned out the driver had no licence and no insurance.

The driver also failed a roadside drug test.

“Big day out in court to follow,” the Gardaí said.
