You said it could be worse...how about this?

Wow! I didn't know that any continental European countries ever drove on the left. I thought that was strictly a UK thing. But geez, having driven on the left, why would they change?? Pure chaos!

Rob, for your edification and information, here is the world's driving orientation. Explanation ↓↑ Drives on right - Red ↑↓ Drives on left - Blue
very interesting! I had wondered about this... I didn't realize that there were that many countries that drive on the same side of the road as we do in America

I miss that guy!
I'm glad that Canada didn't go the usual left-side route of the other British possessions. As much traffic as there is between our two countries, I can imagine how it would look at the border as the traffic switched from one side to the other.

They could have put Fife on patrol to straighten it out!
