So, what side does Ireland drive on? Left. Always left. But here’s the secret: the Irish don’t care if you mess up, as long as you try. They’ll laugh with you, not at you.
And if you ever rent a car there, remember this: the gear stick is your new best friend, the roundabout is your dance partner, and the GPS will keep saying “At the roundabout, take the first exit” until you want to throw it out the window. Don’t. You need it.
Pack your sense of adventure, look left, and enjoy the ride. The hills of Connemara are worth the focus shift. And when you finally nail that roundabout? You’ll feel like a local—even if you’re still waving at the windshield wipers instead of the turn signal.
