A motorist caught speeding at over 30km/h above the speed limit in Kildare said they were trying to get a pizza before the takeaway closed.
Naas Roads Policing Unit stopped a vehicle driving at 113 km/h in an 80 km/h zone during a recent speed checkpoint.
On further inspection, they discovered the driver was an unaccompanied learner driver, with no L plates displayed and no insurance.
Gardaí then seized the vehicle and issued a €440 Fixed Charge Penalty Notice and 3 penalty points for the offences.
The driver is also set to face a court appearance in relation to having no insurance.
On social media, Kildare Gardaí said : "No takeaway is worth putting yourself or other road users at risk".
"Slow down. Follow the rules. Get home safely."
