 I drove a "right-sided" steering wheel Bug, on the left-hand side of
the road, around Kingston Jamaica. Oh Gawd! That was truly scary.
Left-sided steering wheels and driving on the right side of the road
feels MUCH safer. <g> Driving in Jamaica is just like driving in
Paris. Almost no (if any) stop lights and everybody just pounds on
their horns!

 I can't imagine driving a manual trans car with RHD. No way I could
speedshift! (I always thought that's why we drive on the right)

It's easy! It just takes you about 10 minutes to stop "shifting" with
the door handle, that's all :-)­

For me, in a LHD car, it seems odd to have the left (weaker) hand on
the wheel while you change gear.

The only LHD car I've driven was a Toyota Corolla in Spain a few years
back :-)­

Just proves once again it's all a matter of what you're used to. My
Sportster (& most all bikes in the US - especially since '76) has
right-side foot brakes. I got an eariler Sportster once & coming to a stop
I was telling myself "left-foot brake, left-foot brake, left-foot brake.."
& damned if I didn't downshift it instead! Could *not* get used to it *at
all*.

Easy on the Giggle Cream!
