I remember when I lived on the continent, Hubby used to put post its on the dashboard to remind me which side of the road to drive on when I got off the ferry lol When drivign my left hand drive vehicle for the first few days, I used to try to change gear and end up opening the window, soon got the hang of it but it got very confusing for a few minutes when I changed back to a UK car I actually Laughed Out Loud at you then Jem ...aww bless you

LOL, Bel. I would be a menace on the UK roads too, drivers controls on the right hand side, driving on the left side of the road. I could probably quickly adapt to one or the other, but it would take a while for me to adapt to both !!! you'll be suprised Jerry you'll adapt quicker than you think ...i did when i drove in the states.... but one thing my american friends have commented on is our tiny roads and how fast we drive... but on the plus point we Brits are very courteous and considerate apparently Speak for yourself

i don't think all the other drivers would like me on the roads Me too, I've never even taken a test - think how many lives I've saved But I'd do it if I had my time again. My (unwicked) stepmother took lessons after my father died, when she was over 60, and passed her test first time. She's now 80-something and still driving. scylla
