This is an interesting point about us drivers here in the UK (where we
have most of the original right-handers). Once you get used to left-hand
drive in a DeLorean, a right-hooker just doesn't feel "right" (in fact I
like to call them "wrong-hand drive" but that's just me!).
The only problem* with LHD on the left of the road is overtaking. In
fact visibility on the motorway and in traffic is much better on the
left, and especially when it comes to roundabouts, it's excellent
because there's no A pillar in the way when looking right.
* Oh, and the Dartford tolls....... but I'll let Chris Hawes admit to
his particular solution to that problem....
