Anyone who has driven a Ford model T can certainly attest to the challenges of having all the controls in the "wrong" locations. (OK, the steering wheel is the same as modern cars; but nothing else).
The early EVs also had considerably different controls. How about tiller steering? :-) The tiller also had a hand grip that you rotated forward to accelerate, and backward for braking. Backward would give you *plenty* of electric braking force! Lee -- Excellence does not require perfection. -- Henry James -- Lee A.
