Gardai have revealed how one driver tried, but failed miserably, in an attempt to fool them with altered tax and insurance discs.
Wicklow officers stopped the car and were stunned at the artwork.
The tax disc was drawn onto a Permanent TSB lodgement slip.
The incident was revealed on the gardai's popular @GardaTraffic Twitter account.

The car was impounded and Gardai are reminding drivers that altering discs is fraud and will result in stiffer penalties in court.
Twitter users were taken aback at the creative artwork.
He/She would have got away with it if they filled in their account number for Permanent TSB 🤣. That's the best yet
