What Side of the Road do you drive on?

[cascade9]

Technically, I spose I should drive on the left...but since I dont drive a car, I ride (bus or bike) wherever I feel like.

The driver's seat should be closest to the middle of the road, as it allows for the best visibility of the whole road. This is immediately apparent when you drive a car that has the steering wheel on the wrong side. Here in New Zealand we drive on the left, so the driver is on the right hand side of the car. We also own a Ford Mustang which has been imported from the USA, so the driver is on the left, and I can say from experience that it's not easy to drive, especially around traffic because it's impossible to see beyond the car immediately in front.

Only 1 car I know of has a setup like that, and its just a touch to expensive for most of us humans.

The drivers seat should be closest to the middle of the *road*, not to the middle of the car.

(Thus on the left in right-handed countries, and on the left in right driving countries.)

Anyways, as for me, I drive on the underside of the road.

Here in Ireland, I drive a righthand-drive car on the left hand side

That looks like an incredible pain in the *** to climb in and out of.

Depends, one jeep the steering wheel is on the left the other jeep the steering wheel is on the right. Ild make a depends on how much Ive had to drink joke but I have no idea how well drinking and driving humor goes over here so Ill leave it the imagination.

Would it be too difficult to let the user choose which side?

Right? Left? This is a political thread, isn't it?

Where's the option for "I drive on the left side, but I'm supposed to drive on the right side"?
