"According to date from Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), average traffic volumes for private cars is currently down approximately 50 per cent from pre-COVID-19 levels.
"There have been 13 incidents between 22 October and 31 October inclusive where individuals were suspected of breaching travel restriction regulations and files have been sent to the DPP in line with Garda policy."
Speaking today Deputy Commissioner, Policing and Security, John Twomey added: "It is very welcome to see such continuing high levels of compliance with the Level 5 public health guidelines.
"We want to thank the public for this. We know it is not easy, but it is vital that we all work together to maintain this in the weeks ahead to further reduce the spread of COVID-19.
"Compliance among retail premises also remains very high. This is appreciated. However, there are still some retailers who are potentially in breach of the regulations. We will continue to focus our attention on those retailers.
"I would like to remind the public that Gardaí around the country are here to help at this difficult time, particularly those who are vulnerable or feel isolated. If you know of someone who, for instance, needs their shopping done, their pension collected or checked on please contact your local Garda station. We are here to help."
