Two young people have been caught illegally driving a tractor in Westmeath.
A 14-year-old has been caught driving a tractor in Westmeath.
It was stopped by Gardaí in the county, while it was being driven with a 13-year-old passenger.
The vehicle was uninsured and hadn’t been taxed in almost 11 years.
Gardaí are reminding people they must be 16 or older and licensed to drive a tractor and you must apply for a category W driving license.
Gardaí in Co. Westmeath came upon this tractor the other evening being driven by a 14 year old with a 13 year old passenger.
