And they had no driving licence or insurance either.

A motorcyclist with no driving licence or insurance was caught driving at a speed of 195 km/h while under the influence of cocaine and cannabis in Dublin this week.

The motorcyclist was caught driving at the excessive speed on the Chapelizod bypass by officers from the Dublin Metropolitan Region, with a subsequent drug test showing traces of cocaine and cannabis in their system.

The driver was subsequently arrested and charged.

News of the incident came on the same day that it was revealed that there were more arrests for driving while impaired in April 2017 than in any single month since 2012.

Slow down on the roads this Bank Holiday weekend folks.
