Driving Distance from Dublin, Ireland to Cork, Ireland?

Question

Driving Distance from Dublin, Ireland to Cork, Ireland?

Answer 1

First of all are you from Ireland? Because when I went there a couple of months ago I found the roads to be horrible. Not only can I not drive on the other side of the road. But all those round abouts really are annoying. And there isn't any room between the road and the ditch, or the car next to you. I suggest taking a bus. Ireland has the best bus system that I have ever seen. You can go anywhere just about anytime several times a day. And it's cheap. I went from Dublin to Cork on a bus and it only cost 6 Euros.

Answer 2

It definitely won't take less than 3 hours, it'll be closer to 4

Answer 3

It is about 140 miles alright , it is partly motorway for a stretch  at each end , with a toll a few miles from Cork .It should take less than 3 hours

Answer 4

Well depending on the time of day i think it should take you 5 hours at the very most!!.........    :-)
