946 motorists were detected for speeding offences this bank holiday weekend.
Gardaí are continuing their road policing operations today asking motorists to slow down and put away their mobile phones.
More than 120 people were also arrested for intoxicated driving under the influence of either alcohol or drugs.
One person was detected driving 105 km/h in a 50 km/h zone at the Seapoint Promenade area of Galway.
Another driver was doing 91 km/h in a 60 km/h zone on North Road, Drogheda in Co Louth, while someone was caught driving 134 km/h in a 100 km/h section of the M7 in Ladytown, Naas, Co Kildare.
Of the 946 drivers detected speeding, 160 of them were in the last 24 hours.
Gardaí also arrested 127 people suspected of driving under the influence.
The August Bank Holiday Weekend Roads Policing Operation was launched by gardaí at 7am on Thursday.
Inspector Peter Gilsenan said: "While we have seen generally good levels of compliance at garda checkpoints across the country, we have still detected people driving at unacceptable speeds and partaking in extremely dangerous driving behaviour such as drug and drink driving.
"Whether there is a road safety operation in place or not, our message never changes - for the sake of yourselves and all road users, please slow down and drive safely. Do not use your phone when driving and never drive under the influence of an intoxicant."
A total of 115 people have died on Irish roads so far this year, an increase of 12 on 2023 figures.
