Continental Driving

[stevedohc2b]

Hi you soon get use to it, take your time.

I have found that right turns can be the worse when there two lanes to turn into.

I have driven from New York to La in a week. Through France Belgium and Germany, the Greek islands and last year down to Le-mans with the Hood the French roads are great.

Have just got back from Cyprus and I know they drive on our side but the roads are just tracks in some places great fun in a 4X4 that we had.

 

Go for it.

 

Good fun.

I've now got old & forgetful, so I tie a brightly coloured boot lace onto the right hand side of the steering wheel as a reminder. Works every time, & gets everyone talking to you, asking what its for!!.

Worst situation is pulling into a garage on the LHS (wrong) side of the road.

Pulling out, you look backwards & steer by instinct onto the LHS of the road.

Otherwise, after 1/2 hour it all seems to make more sense than driving on the left.
