Gardaí have issued a warning about properly securing loads after a video showing bales of hay falling off a trailer emerged over the weekend.
The footage was captured near the North Kilkenny / Tipperary border over the weekend.
In the clip, it can be seen that the bales were only held down by one strap and Gardaí note that the driver was going too fast.
"The video shows the importance of using straps to tie downloads," Offaly gardaí posted.
"As can be seen, only one strap is being used here going lengthways and the driver is travelling way too fast for the road surface.
"This incident occurred in North Kilkenny/Tipperary border area on Saturday evening.
''This is a busy period for farms and other businesses, please ensure all loads are properly secured."
