I thought it was because Europeans drive on the other side of the road?
But I’m not 100% which side France uses.
ironically, this stunt was performed in Europe. lol
Only the UK & Ireland (and Malta maybe?) drive on the left in Europe
Malta is correct and Cyprus drives on the left, too.
Thanks!
There are some interesting repercussions of the expansion of the British Empire too. British Virgin Islands drive on the left with right hand drive cars. Islands that were purchased by other nations, like St. John, use American left hand drive cars while driving on the left side of the road.
I rented a car in St. John, and I can say it’s so bizarre being the driver on the white line side of the road.
Totally tripped me out on Montserrat in a rental car. Their roads are insane, I’d never driven on the left hand side of the road before, and certainly not in a left driver’s side car. If the driver’s side was on the right I think I would have been way less scared.
Absolutely! Making my first right at a four-way intersection was terrifying. It’s kinda cool how your brain just gets it all of a sudden though.
