You can overtake on the left on motorways at any speed within the limit. Nowhere in the book on Rules of the Road Motorway Booklet or the Irish Statuet Book does it say otherwise.
I'm sorry but you're incorrect with the above statement. Page 142 & 143 clearly state how lanes should be used on a motorway. "Lane 1 The normal ‘keep left’ rule applies. Stay in this lane unless you are overtaking." "Lane 2 On a two-lane motorway, use this for overtaking only and move back into Lane 1 when you have finished. You may also use this lane to accommodate traffic merging from the left. On a three-lane motorway, you may stay in this centre lane while there is slower moving traffic in Lane 1." Page 145 continues: "Overtaking Overtake only on the right, unless traffic is travelling in slow moving queues and the traffic queue on your right is travelling more slowly than you are. If you intend to move from a slower lane to a faster lane, adjust your speed first."
