I've posted an explanation of left and right hand driving in Vixens Chit Chat!
biggrin

I agree with you there, it's something you can't explain why its either left or right, i can't make sense of it either hmm

Maybe it's to do with the side of the road you drive on?, as we drive on the left, we have the right hand side driver, left hand side drive, tend to drive on the right, weird i know, it's something i can't explain either really, just a theory

Good logic there Kim! biggrin

        Maybe it's as you say...it's to do with the side of the road we
        drive on but another question is why did they make it left or right in the
        first place? If that makes any sense?! biggrin

But something I don't get ..LOL is why in European continent do they build vehicules with right driving seat instead of the left like in America ????????? Big question isn't ???

        Actually Kimmy they do drive with the steering wheel on the left hand
        side in Europe.
        In Great Britian we drive with the steering wheel on the right!
        In answer to your question I have no idea why some places have
        left hand driving and others have right hand driving! biggrin

All our cars over here are right hand drive, unless they are imports which then would be left hand side cars, i dont even know if i could ever drive a left hand one, as i have been so use to cars right hand side, it would feel weird to me, most of your cars are automatic transmissions so you dont really need to use the gears, mine is manual, and i am so used to using my left hand to change gears, that if i was to drive a left hand side car i would need to have an automatic as i wouldn't be able to use my right hand, hmm

I know that sounds a bit weird...lol

It's right what you said Lesley, if you can drive around London, you can drive anywhere, but it's a pain, too many cars nowdays, i moan about the cars and parking where i live, and crossing the roads, i always tell my girls, watch where you cross the roads, don't take chances even if you have to walk a way to the crossings, better to be safe than sorry. They even say that Paris is a nightmare to drive around as well, can't be any worse than London! hmm

around Hyde Park Corner is the worst i've seen, it's every man for themselves, cry

The best vehicles to be in to drive around London is the 40ft lorries, i use to love it, everyone moves out of the way..lol, don't want to be squashed by massive lorry biggrin

        I remember years ago when I was taking driving lessons...my driving
        instructor got me driving 'round Hyde Park Corner in the rush hour...if
        can drive in central London in the rush hour you can drive ANYWHERE!

Interesting quote from Nic in that second article Kim!.......

''I'm not a very good driver in England,'' Cage says somewhat sheepishly. I have trouble even walking across the street in London, so it was a challenge.''

If it's of any consolation Nic...I'm a native Londoner and even I find driving in London and walking across the street in London a nightmare! Lol. biggrin
