I have a hard time with that too. It looks like here then you realize they're on the wrong side of the road.

Hi guys.
Thanks for all your kind commits on my family.
Don't mind sharing it a hoilday we been planing for 2 years.
As for the wrong side of the road. i don't even notice driving a left hook anymore.
one thing you guys may think about while sitting at the computer. went you drive a 4sp floor change useing your right hand. we do it with the left hand in your normal cars. same with light wiper all on the opposite side.
