Are you, Sir FloatingFatsalot, calling me Daft?!

Now would I do such a mean spirited thing as that?   :roll:










No. Don't answer that!  :P

Sounds like a forum title or one of those odd badge names.

Daft would be Burma/Myanmar.

"We've been driving on this side of the road since we started having cars, but it looked really cool, in this movie I just watched, to drive on the other side. Since I'm a dictator, I can just change the side of the road that we drive on, right?"

What's funny ("funny terrifying," not "funny ha-ha") is that the steering wheels are still on the right, and the bus doors are still on the left. Have fun stepping off the bus into traffic!
I wouldn't use the word "replace," but there's no word for "take over for you and make everything better almost immediately," so we just say "replace."

Samoa did this in 2009 and there were no immediate accidents.

The position of the steering wheel is a consequence of the side of the road driven on, not a cause.

The reason we drive on the left is simple.  Most knights were right handed, they would hang on to their horses reigns with their left, and use their swords with their right during combat. Made it easier to chop bits off your enemies!

The reason others drive on the right is also simple.  They're daft. :p

If you're having problems aiming your long stick, you have more problems than a shut window! :P

The curious side of me wondered why people don't have the steering wheel in the middle of the car. that is the basic driving factor on which side of the road to drive

Obviously, because then you'd drive right down the middle of the road. Which might not work on two-way streets.

It could work if they widened the road so there was room for two lanes in the middle.

In the middle of the road,
You see the darnest things.
Like fat cats driving around in jeeps through the city,
Wearing big diamond rings and silk suits.

If any of them drive like the people in Paragon City, then you'd be safer in the burning building full of Malta ( or Tsoo, COT, Carnies, or <insert any other villain group here> ).

Or the M.A.G.I. vault if you happen to be a magical artifact.

Eagerly awaiting the next update on the potential purchase of CoH.

Like some pensive Mexican stand-off.

Hopefully good news is pending.
