I'm using my own car
Thats means the wheel where it belongs but still strange Brits driving on the wrong side of the road.
I've done both... my own car and take a company pool car. The difficulty of the right hand drive is not in steering, rather in shifting gears with your left hand. A bit tricky in that the pattern of the gears is not mirrored. 1st gear is the furthest from your knee rather than being the closest.
Driving a regular vehicle in the UK poses a couple of problems to watch out for. The most obvious is the overtaking on a two lane highway. Intersections that join at acute angles can be real tricky because looking to see if somebody is coming over your right shoulder is nearly impossible.
Here is the obscure one though. Watch out turning off of one way streets back onto two way streets... (or if you decide to get gasoline on the opposite side). One way streets can lull you into the sense that everything is normal again, and you mistakenly turn back out onto oncoming traffic.
All in all I find being a pedestrian more dangerous. I almost got killed twice... (strangely enough both times in exactly the same place). #roundabout #curryhouse #kingfisher
