| > There's only one spot in London where you'll have to drive like much of the rest of the world That makes it sound like Britain is the only place with left side traffic. 35% of the world population live in countries where they drive on the left side. |

| In my country, Malta, we drive on the left too, but I drive a LHD car, so everyone can tell me I'm on the wrong side somehow. |

| Using total population is a bad metric considering India itself has about 2 out of 7 billion people. |

| ▲ | kakacik 2 days ago | parent [-] | | > Left is right and right is wrong one of cool road signs I saw years ago in Ladakh state on road from Manali to Leh. Funnily enough that 19h minibus trip sometimes went through valleys without any form of road, just used least uneven path. Not so funnily enough we had an obvious technical stop later when driver was banging with huge rock on some part of suspension for an hour, and luckily his caveman engineering worked well enough to get us moving again | | |
