It's still in the middle of the car, surprisingly, even European people prefer to not have to climb over the gear lever to get into the car. Irrespective of what side the steering wheel is, the gear lever is in the centre.

What safety gear do you need for a car?

All cars have a neutral gear and all cars will start in neutral. It is recommended by all vehicle manufactures that the car's transmission be left in either park or neutral and that the emergency brake be set. If the vehicle has an automatic transmission, then PARK is the safest gear, but most cars have manual transmission and no park gear, so the safest gear is NEUTRAL with the parking brake engaged.
