Each offending driver received an FCPN of €120 along with three penalty points
In the past 24 hours, Kildare Gardai have taken action against motorists who flout road safety regulations by using mobile phones while driving.
A total of 15 Fixed Charge Penalty Notices (FCPNs) were issued by Naas Roads Policing.
Among the notable cases were instances involving a Tractor on the N7 in Naas, an Articulated Lorry in Prosperous, and a Cement Lorry in Kilcullen.
Statistics reveal the gravity of the situation, indicating that making a call increases the likelihood of a collision by four times, while texting raises the risk by a staggering 23 times.
Each offending driver received a fine of €120 along with three penalty points.
Separately, Gardai detected eight people driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs in the past week throughout Kildare.
