An open bottle of wine was found next to the driver when he was stopped at Cloontuskert, near the Longford border.
He was also reportedly not wearing a seat belt.
The man was charged at Roscommon garda station with two counts of dangerous driving and one of drink driving.
He is due to appear in court at a later date.
