THE TWITTER GRÁ for the @GardaTraffic account has been well established by now but its looks as if the traffic corps are seeking to broaden their appeal.

Many of the new cars in the garda traffic corps fleet will have their Twitter handle on the side along with the Garda Síochána website.

The vinyl will not be on all of the cars, but it on some and in a Tweet announcing the addition gardaí have asked people to let them know if they’ve been spotted.

Be warned though:

And yes we want you to follow us and tweet us, but no not while driving, not even handsfree, Bsafe pic.twitter.com/ukP5S8QsTo
