Gardaí found that the car was last taxed in 2017 while the tyres were bald.

Custom colleagues also found green diesel in the fuel tank.

Garda Síochána Kilkenny/Carlow took to Facebook to remind drivers to always think about road safety:

"This car was seized yesterday by Gardaí in Mooncoin, Co Kilkenny - a full house really, last taxed in 2017, dangerously defective with bald tyres and also our colleagues in Customs found green diesel in the tank. Always think Road Safety👍 #ArriveAlive #staysafe"
