Fintan, I did have a good laugh , that information is correct but you forgot to mention that Australia and New Zealand also drive on the left. All the sensible people All the advice for Donna and do you know when she gets there she may not remember a word but just do it naturally. Have fun Donna , life is very short. trish Hi, below off topic but may help anyone driving in ireland, If u hire a car anywhere in the world the driver always sits next to white line as hire cars are usually car type(steering wheel on left or right) intended for country where they are hired. So if u are driving along and come to a T-junction, u should still be in middle hugging white line afterwards. Same with roundabouts, the driver should always be next to middle of roundabout (not passenger) So if u hired a car in Ireland UK and Japan you drive on left side of road with steering wheel in right front seat of hire car using gear stick with your left hand. Driver always in middle of road hugging white line. Turn left on roundabouts so driver always on inside. If u hired a car in the US or Europe you would drive on the right side of the road with steering wheel in left seat in front using gear stick with your right hand. Driver always in middle of road hugging white line. Turn right on roundabouts so driver always on inside. This shouldnt apply to anyone hiring a car but only time above wouldnt apply is if you were driving a car not designed for county it is being driven. Eg if u sailed with your car from Ireland or UK to europe or visa versa. Alot of people from Eurpoe working in Ireland bring their cars with them so they drive next to ditch and have an awful time trying to pass out. Same would apply if u shipped your car from US to Ireland but dont think thats very common.

When driving just remember that the middle line (when there is one) should stay against the drivers side > my Brit friend told me that and it really helped to remember making a wide right hand turn and a tight left hand! You'll do fine.....
