Fricking Europe. I heard that if it hadn't been for Brexit they were going to start phasing in driving on the right hand side!!... lorries and coaches first and if successful, the same with cars and bikes!
As you mention that, i had 2 different Euro drivers give way to me this week, one heading towards me and the other in front of me, but they both never indicated and pulled over for a few seconds on the "right" side of their road.So the one i was following looked like he was parking to the right, but wasn't, and the one aiming towards me totally crossed my path. Once past, both of them then rejoined the road.
VNA driving on the left is a legacy from when we were ruled by the Romans.
Guess same reason the accelarator is on the right is the Fazer mighter than the sword?? my lord
That's the same reason as when we shake hands it's with your right hand. It's was originally to show you friendly and didn't have a weapon in your right hand.
I'll get me coat....
And another thing....I work in a psychiatric hospital, ok? When I trained as a nurse some 30 years ago it was fine to call these places "loony bins" or "nuthouses". Nowadays they're referred to as "mental health units" or "psychiatric care facilities". I tell you - it's madness gone politically correct! (geddit?) I'll get me coat....
