Social media is abuzz with all things Leaving Cert today as students collect their results around the country.
Even Garda Traffic has gotten in on the action tweeting these slightly surreal words of encouragement or any nervous teens out there.

Silly or genius? Twitter is divided.
Some thought it was gas.

But others focused more on the inaccuracies in the tweet.

And the NUI Galway Geography Society shared this helpful advice.
@GardaTraffic The Cliffs of Moher is an inanimate Geographical feature. It didn't take an exam because it's a cliff #science #geography
