It is the highest figure in an area aside from Dublin, with a national total of almost 1,700

Gardaí have revealed that there were 222 fines for e-scooter offences issued in the Kildare-Carlow area since May 2024.

It is the highest figure in an area aside from Dublin, with a national total of 1,694.

The highest figures seen were for the Dublin Metropolitan Region South Central, with 306 fines issued.

The figures came as a result of a parliamentary question from Sinn Féin TD Mark Ward to Justice Minister Jim O Callaghan earlier this month.
