Driving in Ireland

Driving in Ireland is generally a pleasant experience. The motorists are usually polite and friendly and usually just putting on an indicator is enough to be allowed move into another lane in traffic. While the main roads are generally of very good quality, it is important to be careful when driving on secondary roads where the quality and width may not be what you expect.

Speeding Fines
Speed limits in Ireland are enforced. If you brake the speed limit and get caught by speed traps you will be fined and will have penalty points applied to your license.

Parking Fines
Parking in Ireland is run by private companies, so if you park your car and do not pay for it or return late, you may be clamped. Parking fines will be passed on to the customer.

In general driving in Ireland is a great experience, but drivers should take care to obey the rules of the road. For more information see the terms and conditions printed on the back of your contract. For more information about car rental in Ireland please do not hesitate to contact us.
