Nigeria changed to left hand driving on April 2, 1972.
Suriname and Guyana are the only two countries on mainland South America with driving on the left. Guyana inherited the practice as a British colony. The Netherlands converted to driving on the right at the end of the 18th century. But the former Dutch colony of Suriname has kept the practice of driving on the left.
Approximately 75% of countries around the world have the steering wheel on the left-hand side of vehicles, which allows for driving on the right side of the road. This includes major countries like the United States, Canada, and most of Europe. In total, around 165 countries use left-hand steering, while about 35 countries, primarily in former British colonies, have the steering wheel on the right side.
The passenger side of a car is typically the right side in countries where driving is on the right-hand side of the road, such as the United States. In countries where driving is on the left, like the United Kingdom, the passenger side is on the left. This side is designated for passengers, while the driver’s side is opposite.
Left hand drive, the same as the rest of Continental Europe.
Your right hand can touch your left elbow but your left hand can't and your left hand can touch your right elbow but your right hand can't.
America has never officially converted to right-hand drive; it has remained a left-hand drive country since the introduction of automobiles. Most vehicles are designed for left-hand driving, with the driver seated on the left side of the vehicle and driving on the right side of the road. Some territories and regions, like the U.S. Virgin Islands, use right-hand drive, but this is not the case for the continental United States.
you can wite from right to left with your left hand while writing left to right with your hand what does that mean
Whether a car is right or left hand drive is dependent on in what country it will be sold. If it is sold in England, Australia, Japan or other countries where one drives on the left side of the road then the car is right-hand-drive. If the car is sold in most of the other countries on Earth then the car would be left-hand-drive as they drive on the right side of the road. So you can see, whether a car is right or left-hand-drive is dependent on the country in which it is sold, not the make or model of car.
When driving, use your left arm straight out for a left turn, your left arm bent upward for a right turn, and your left arm bent downward for a stop. Make sure to signal in advance and maintain control of your vehicle while using hand signals.
