It doesn't take to long to get use to if you ever do. The only thing I find is sometimes I walk to the wrong side of the car.

Haha...reminds me of when I went to USA, I was there for a while and did not have a full NZ license so I went to the Dept. of Motor Vehicles to get a Texas license. Well anyway the first day that I went in to apply and sit the written I went to the front desk where a big (no HUGE) negro security guy was. He asked me what I wanted and I explained, and in a deep accent he simply stated "Ya aint from around here are ya boy?"...made me laugh.It doesn't take to long to get use to if you ever do. The only thing I find is sometimes I walk to the wrong side of the car.
Anyways I passed that and went back a few days later to sit the practical. The female officerwas a real looker and her voice was so sweet (oh, how I love women in uniform, and I love the southern belle accent), but thats beside the point. Went out on a test drive, pulled outta the DMV onto a sidestreet only to go onto the left hand side. I noticed my mistake and promptly moved to the right hand side.
Anyway I passed all right and spent the rest of my visit driving a 2002 Chevrolet Monte Carlo...loved that car.

We drive on the same side of the road except when there are corners. Then we drift across the centre line at will and abuse people who point out our mistakes.
Sometimes we'll even stop and turn around and chase the people who don't like us driving on the "wrong" side of the road (I'll drive wherever I want and up yours!) and smash their car windows with the tyre iron we keep under the seat.
Of course if we're a motorcyclist lane discipline doesn't apply so we dangle our entire bike and upper body into the opposite lane on blind corners because it is our right to ride however we want.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

OMG, you're not the guy I saw yesterday riding through Johnsonville who thought the Red light means go and that the 50 sign was really 70???
(only kidding mate, just you see some really bad riding sometimes)

That was me. Sometimes I stop and do feet up doughnuts in the middle of the Johnsonville roundabout.

I prefer the top side, sometimes I do get to the edge.

speaking for a car...
If you aint sitting near the middle of the road ....
YOUR ON THE WRONG SIDE
Think of it that way

On motorbikes it may be trickier if you don't pay attention.
Last month two members of the same motorcycle tour group on the West Coast crashed head on and burst into flames 'cos the guy from Canada forgot which side of the road he was meant to be on.
Both survived but will be a tad scarred-up.

OUCH!
When I was driving in the USA and Canada I quickly got used to driving on the other side of the road. The one time I got it wrong was when I was turning left at an intersection in the middle of nowhere in the dusk and a deer jumped out in front of me. I swerved to miss the deer, carried on through the intersection and found myself on the wrong side of the road.
Very scary to think that the time when you really need to get it right is the time when you're most likely to panic and get it wrong!
There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!

On the center line, on one wheel
