Waiting for 30 minutes to access the Web site of the Road Safety Authority, the Irish equivalent of the DMV. Too bad they don’t have physical offices where I could queue personally…

      They didn’t assume most people are US-based. They assumed the DMV would be the most widely recognised and understood example to use.

          Are you being obtuse? English is the most commonly spoken language in the world and US culture is extremely popular worldwide.
