The above website list comments on which side would be best to drive on in the UK. But further down are comments, one of which is to sort out the “muddled measurements” in the UK. (Below Alex, Birmingham. With the Brits around here in France, I’ve noticed it’s cheaper to buy a comparable used car in the UK, but more expensive to buy new in the UK. I figure it must have something to do with the market available for both new and used in the UK compared to the rest of Europe. Never mind the accidents from Brits starting out in the countryside here on the wrong side.
