Scott has it right, and his advice also applies to Northern Ireland, should some of you ever decide to move here. If you display the three documents Scott mentioned, your chances of being stopped are drastically reduced, here in the north, we only display our annual vehicle inspection certificate and annual registration certificate. I've been driving here in the north for five years on a U.S; license and have been stopped many times, (not for traffic violations)mostly just road checks. Another problem faced up here is driving a northern registered car while residing in the Republic,as in my case. The Irish customs are on the road between North Ireland and the republic each and every day, but when I'm stopped, and they hear my accent, I just get waved through the roadblock, I've never had a chance to try out my well rehearsed BS story on them. Keep all your documents current, stay with the posted speed, drive sober, and extend all road curtsies to your fellow drivers, and you'll have no problems.
