Gardaí have slammed a driver for moving a mattress on a car roof and only securing it with duct tape.
Clondalkin Road Policing Unit in Dublin stopped this car (pictured above) on Wednesday.
The driver was moving a mattress "but only had it secured with duct tape".
Gardaí said: "We didn't allow him to proceed until he called for alternative transport.
"We also advised him on recent Government instructions."
