...learn to drive on the right side of the road?

This morning a member of the british empire came roaring in his car on
the wrong side of the road and collided front first with another car. The
driver of the other car is now dead, so it's tragic, but you can't really be
mad at this englishman. After all, if I came to England and suddenly had
to sit in the passenger seat and drive, and drive on the wrong side
of the road, I can easily imagine how I myself could make such a
mistake.

I think we need an international agreement that says all countries, all
over the world has to have the same rules here, especially nowadays
when earth has shrunk so much you can easily get to the other side of
the globe in a matter of hours.

Never has your self-chosen forum title been more appropriate.

Yes, but we came to our senses like 40 some years ago. 😛

Such hostility! Don't tell me, you're driving on the wrong side of the road in
South Africa too, eh?

Sometimes.

An alternative to forced conversion of drivers from one irrational set of practices to another would be to adopt the Zimbabwean style of driving, in which cars weave along the boulevards as they please. I hear this style is also popular in Greece. The advantage of the Zimbabwean system is that the boulevards are quite empty, so there's room for driver creativity.

We can also introduce the lemmel rules in traffic, but somehow it seems too
obvious what the governments of the world would want to achieve by that.
Being a retard, I'd probably fall for it though.
