Checkpoint Bingo! Garda pull over driver who has a fake EVERYTHING

This is taking things a little TOO far...

Rory Cashin

This is taking things a little TOO far…

Not that we condone the actions of anyone getting up to illegal stuff, but we also almost wanna commend this guy who decided to fake just about every aspect of his ability to drive.

Pulled over at a checkpoint in Carrickmacross in County Monaghan, the driver was promptly arrested for drink driving.

However, once they gave his particulars a once over, they discovered that not everything was as it seemed.

In fact, nothing was as it seemed.

We’ve covered fakeries before, including the extremely lazy attempts, and the oddities, including whatever was going on here, but this one takes the biscuit.

Not only did the driver have a fake driving licence, he had also faked his car tax.

And his car insurance.

And the NCT.

That is what we like to call Checkpoint Bingo.
