thought I would post it here for a chuckle
I DID follow through with responding that drive thru's would be on the other side - you could see her eyes register the obvious...she laughed at herself and said 'oh yeah, I guess I didn't think that one through...'Green1 wrote:some people aren't as swift as the rest of us.... *sigh*
I don't like drive-through's much anyway, I tend to just go inside (even in my LHD)
Or the fact that in Europe they drive left hand drives on the right hand side of the road, just like herek8bloomer wrote:I DID follow through with responding that drive thru's would be on the other side - you could see her eyes register the obvious...she laughed at herself and said 'oh yeah, I guess I didn't think that one through...'
Checkout this site for a breakdown of who drives on which side and some interesting speculation as to why... http://www.brianlucas.ca/roadside/ 
I stop at the machine and get out and run around to push button/receive ticket. I'm pretty sure trying to climb over to the passenger window would take longer. If there is someone behind me I always expect them to honk impatiently at me spending 5 extra seconds, but none have yet.impalator wrote:.. the worst part are the parkades where you have to pull / insert a ticket....
There is also the Wikipedia entry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_hand_drive) that gives all kinds of info too.konadog wrote:Checkout this site for a breakdown of who drives on which side and some interesting speculation as to why... http://www.brianlucas.ca/roadside/
Interesting, someone seems to know the RHD market in Canada. And the author(s) know Montreal too. The separation on Hwy 20 includes several sets of train tracks, so you don't really notice that you are on the "wrong" side.RHD vehicles are allowed for import in Canada, providing that they were manufactured over 15 years ago. For instance, before Rolls-Royces were marketed in Canada, the only imports available were RHD. Recently, however, Rolls-Royce and other expensive British automakers now manufacture LHD versions and have a Canadian office. Some Japanese RHD cars can be found as well, like the Nissan Skyline, Mitsubishi Delica and Mitsubishi Pajero. These cars are mainly found in British Columbia due to the proximity to Asian ports, but may also be found in cities such as Calgary, Toronto,Saskatoon and Winnipeg.
One of the very few places in Canada where traffic drives on the left is in Montreal on Autoroute 20 for the 3 kilometers (2 mi) between its junctions with Route 138 and Autoroute 15. The two roadways remain separated by a concrete median barrier for this entire distance and the changing of sides does not interfere in any way with the flow of traffic.

I am from Europe - and the only country (it's actually more like an island) that has rhd is the UK....
