Driving on the left means driving on the left side of the street. If it means something else for you then your communication is off.
Will certainly look for it.
Will let you know if I manage to find something.

No that’s what it means ok - so why do you think your original post
equates to that situation, when it clearly does not ?
The roots of left driving is from old contests of knights, when they were running into each other riding horses they held their spear in their right hand so they had to pass left of each other to fit that both spears are in the right hand.

You said
MrDE:The roots of left driving is from old contests of knights, when they were running into each other riding horses
It seems to me that yet again your failure to grasp the English Language is leading you to false understanding - Horses “passing on the left” is eactly the opposite of “Driving on the left” - Just like when you got stroppy with @tommor when he said “I stand corrected”.
I asked you
Falstaff:Do you understand what “driving on the left” means ?
I don’t think you understand the question !
Driving on the left = cars passing eachothers on the left
Horses passing eachothers on the left = riding on the left
Driving on the left = cars passing eachothers on the left
Not so - Driving om the left = cars passing each other with drivers closest to each other - ie on the right !
The right of my car is nearest to th eright side of your car - ! so we pass on the right

Dude what does that have to do with the explanation of why in some countries cars drive on the left side?
Yeah i get where your confusion comes from.
Here ill paint you a picture of what i mean
Driving on the left you pass on the left. From your perspective you are on the left of the other car/horse rider.
From the other cars/horseriders perspective he is left of you.
Did we clarify this misunderstanding now?
Idon’t think any of this is relevant.

One of very rare times i agree with you.

Spot on Mr DE. That’s also why we shake hands using our right hand, as it meant we had to transfer any weapon to our weaker left hand to do so
Seecret leftie…
