Gardaí have stopped a driver in Co Wicklow for carrying 30 sheep in a three-wheeled trailer.
“You won’t pull the wool over our eyes,” gardaí said in a tweet, alongside an image of the overloaded trailer.
They escorted the trailer back into a nearby field and added that the driver was left feeling rather “sheepish” after the incident.
