Origins Of Where We Drive

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 ?

[Apologies to @anon46773462 for the involvement of my self appointed persecutor here, spoiling your interesting and light hearted thread]

Driving on the left = cars passing eachothers on the left

Horses passing eachothers on the left = riding 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?

Men, pipzilla is bussy today

I owe you a pizza and a beer @Pipzilla

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.

Edit: very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very

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
