Before you pick up your cheap car hire in Limerick, you will need to produce documents that the company needs. These include your passport and driver's licence, as well as an international driver's permit if your driver's licence is not written in English. If you are planning to stay in the country longer than six months, you will need to have your licence converted to that of the country.
What are the rules for driving in Limerick?
When you are driving your car hire in Limerick, you will have to follow the rules of the road. In Limerick, all cars must drive on the left-hand side of the road. The speed limit is different depending on whether you are in the city or in the countryside; in the city, you will have a speed limit of 50 to 60 km/h (31-37 mph), and in the country, the speed limit can be as high as 120 km/h (about 75 mph). The legal blood alcohol content (BAC) limit for fully licenced drivers in Ireland is 50 milligrammes of alcohol per 100ml of blood, and it is heavily enforced.
