Galway Bay fm newsroom - There's been a significant drop in the number of road traffic offences across the county.
The latest Garda figures reveal that between January and March, over 1,100 drivers were caught speeding - a drop of over half on the 2017 figure.
However, the decrease can be attributed in part to the loss of a Garda speed van which is not being replaced.
63 people were caught driving without insurance - down from 93 the previous year.
