A driver who had no NCT on their car was discovered to be banned from driving for eight years, when stopped by Gardaí.
Members of An Garda Síochána in Gurranabraher in Cork city spotted a car with an expired NCT disc while they were on patrol on Sunday.
A quick check of their records proved that this car had no insurance either, and that the driver had been disqualified from driving for 8 years.
The driver is now facing a court appearance.
