The Road Safety Authority (RSA) is asking road users to exercise caution on the roads this weekend as Met Eireann has issued yellow weather warnings for high temperatures Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
In high temperatures the RSA is advising road users, particularly drivers, to be aware of the dangers posed by sun glare.
This can result in drivers being temporarily dazzled or blinded by the intensity and brightness of the sun.
