Gardai have been continuing checkpoints across Dublin this weekend as part of their efforts to monitor compliance with the Level 5 restrictions across Ireland.
But it seems that some lawbreakers are being caught for other crimes.
One driver, who had no insurance or driver's licence was found to be carrying €5k worth of cocaine and €13.5k worth of other controlled drugs in the car.
The discovery happened on the N7 and follows a number of seizures around the city.
Gardai said: "Gardaí stopped a driver at an #OperationFanacht checkpoint on the N7 for having no insurance or driver's licence.
"Upon further investigation of the vehicle the Gardaí discovered €5,000 of cocaine and a further €13,500 worth of controlled drugs."
On Wednesday €30,000 worth of cannabis was found inside crisp packets and seized as part of an intelligence-led Garda raid in North Dublin.
A woman was also arrested after the clever hiding spot was not enough to prevent the seizure.
Gardai and Revenue officials raided a house in Artane where the unique discovery was made.
