Over 163,000 vehicles were checked over the course of the day, with 755 drivers found to be over the speed limit.
Two notable cases were in Co Cork, where one driver was detected doing 194km/h in a 100km zone on the N25 in Castlemartyr.
Another was caught travelling at 112km/h in a 50km zone on Main Street, Charleville.
Gardaí continue to appeal to motorists to slow down to save lives after an almost 10-year high in road deaths last year.
