Car Rentals - Driving in Ireland
Welcome
to our Ireland Car Rental and Irish Information page. We
have included here links to our Driving in Ireland pages
which will provide all of the information you need to drive
in Ireland. Below we have itemised some useful information
when renting your car with us and also lower down the page
links to information you may require. We are fully aware of
the importance of your car rental to you. If you are
traveling on business or for pleasure we want to ensure that
you receive the very best service and vehicle possible.
Please browse through the following Frequently asked
questions if you are looking for further detail on your
impending car rental. We look forward to assisting you.
General
In
Ireland all traffic drives on the LEFT side of the Road. The
same applies to Northern Ireland as well. Most visitors to
Ireland arrive in either Shannon or Dublin Airport. Neither
airport is located in a City Centre and when you collect
your rental vehicle you will have ample time to
"acclimatize" to Driving conditions here before
reaching some of the more built up area's.
In
Ireland most cars are equipped with a Manual Transmission
(Stick Shift). Automatic cars are available but are
generally more expensive to rent. (You can specify which
transmission you would prefer when making a quotation). If
you are visiting us from the UK then many of our road signs,
speed limits, road markings and roundabouts will be familiar
to you. If you are visiting us from continental Europe or
the USA then it may take you a little while to get used to
our road layouts and driving on the "other" side
of the road. Irish Car Rentals supply an excellent Road Map
with each of their rental cars which will help you navigate
your way around our many wonderful towns, villages and
visitor attractions.
On
these pages we have detailed a quick guide for you to help
you get acquainted before you arrive, please use the quick
links on the left or scroll down the page for more
information.
Safety
is our priority - please make it your priority also.
Irish
Car Rentals will make every effort to assist you in having a
pleasant and safe driving experience. It is our priority to
provide safe road worthy vehicles for your stay in Ireland.
We ask all our clients to drive carefully on our roads which
are very often narrow. The number of cars has increased on
Irish roads in the last few years and it is now more
important than ever that all drivers abide by the rules of
the road and take great care when driving.
