General tips
Ireland has left-hand driving, just like the United Kingdom, but unlike the UK, it has blue EU strips on the license plates. Ireland also tends to have fewer bare brick buildings, which are popular in the UK. The landscape is very green, full of farms and rolling hills. Road signs will have both English and Gaelic language on them most of the time.Plates

Road markings
Ireland uniquely has yellow outside lines. They may be striped or solid. Inside lines are white.![road markings](https://d33wubrfki0l68.cloudfront.net/e2341af22c62f21a3ebd1634ab6edade9b6ae83c/fe299/static/img/places/ireland/road-markings/national_road.jpg)
