Ireland's Gardai Recognised in IgNobel Awards

Literature prize
Awarded to the entire police force of Ireland for issuing more than 50 penalties to a man they supposed to be the most persistent driving offender in the country: a Mr Prawo Jazdy, whose name in Polish means “driver’s licence”. An investigation held earlier this year revealed officers had mistakenly taken down the wrong details from motorists’ documents.

I know a few Dublin fellas who were giving serious consideration at the time, to changing their name to “Prawo Jazdy”.

Slan,
