Gardaí across Ireland caught 256 speeding drivers on European Day Without a Road Death.
As part of a 24 hour motorist monitoring system called Project Edward, GoSafe checked the speed of 129,250 vehicles throughout the country.
A total of 256 vehicles were detected travelling in excess of the applicable speed limit.
One vehicle was doing 133km/h in a 100km/h zone on the N22 in Ovens, Co. Cork, while another was recorded doing almost 140km/h on the M1 in Donabate, Dublin.
Thankfully, there were no road deaths reported.
In Balbriggan, Co. Dublin, a motorist was travelling at 108km/h in a 60km/h zone.
A Garda spokesperson said: "Last year, 2017, gave us the lowest number of road deaths in Ireland but we can never be complacent about road safety.
"Project Edward is an important initiative keeping road safety in the minds of all road users.
"We all need to use full concentration when behind the wheel.
"Never drink or take drugs and drive, put the mobile away, and wear your seatbelt on every journey.
"We want people to be safe on the road every day not just on Project Edward day."
