The fatal road collision comes just days after four people were killed in a car crash in Clonmel, also in Co Tipperary.
Twenty four-year-old Luke McSweeney, his 18-year-old sister Grace McSweeney and Zoey Coffey and Nicole Murphy, both also 18, were killed on Friday evening hours after the teenagers received their State exam results.
They were on their way to celebrate when the car they were travelling in overturned and hit a stone wall.
The funerals for the four young people will be held later this week, after thousands attended a vigil in Clonmel on Sunday to mourn the loss.
