Gardai nab Lamborghini driver 'attracting attention' using phone while driving on O'Connell Street

It's not everyday that you see a neon green Lamborghini driving down O'Connell Street.

With that much attention coming their way - you would think that the driver would follow the rules of the road.

But it doesn't seem so, as they were nabbed by gardai using their phone while driving in the city centre.

And now they have been issued with a fixed charge penalty notice and even more attention on social media!

Sharing a pic of the offending vehicle, gardai complimented the "nice motor" while they offered some advice.

They said: "Wouldn’t you think this driver would be on a hands free kit in such a nice motor as not to attract more attention!

What to do in a collision

"Driver stopped for using a mobile phone while driving on O’ Connell St Dublin. FCPN issued."

Gardai also caught an unlicensed taxi in the city centre which had been on the road for six months.

They now face a court date.
