Mk6 Si Ross Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 Driving the cars is the easy bit, its the coming out of junctions and wanting to join the road on the left when you gotta drive on the right instead!!!! Is a bit funny having the handbrake on your right and as your going with your girlfriend just count how many times you go to the wrong door of the car to get in!!! In the States aswell you can legally turn right at a red light if you stop 1st and check its clear to go!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 driving a left hand drive car abroad is easy as they drive on the right so it all works out driving a left hand drive vehicle over here on the other hand is a bit scary at first! i've only ever driven a road sweeper around that has been left hand drive and it was fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 If you are an able driver, then you should have no probs,a bit wierd at first.After spending 2 weeks driving in the South of France/Spain, it felt strange driving on the left back in blighty.
