Summary

Description
English: Put your foot down! The speed limit goes up from 60 to 100 - however, the unit goes from mph to km/h - as we cross the border from the UK to the Republic of Ireland.

More interestingly, in the background we are reminded to drive on the left even though the two nations are consistent in this regard.

This picture is unashamedly taken through the windscreen!
Español: ¿Tienes el pie pesado? El límite de velocidad sube de 60 a 100, pero… la unidad cambia de mph a km/h, al momento de cruzar la frontera del Reino Unido con la República de Irlanda.

Es interesante que, en segundo plano, se nos recuerda que hemos de conducir por la izquierda de la calzada, pese a que ambas naciones concuerdan en este aspecto.

¡No nos avergüenza admitir que la foto se tomó a través del parabrisas!
