You may have noticed by now that cars from Britain and their other past colonies have seemed to place the wheel on the wrong place. If you have ever been to the places where these cars are used, you may also be thinking why the cars on the roads seem to be going in the wrong direction almost all the time! I know for a fact that this does not involve Brits being left-brained or otherwise. They are neither too damn stupid to know the difference between left from right, nor are they lefties, but some of the extremely
left ideologies came from this part of the world!
You see, I came to know from the time I spend on the
digital information platform known as the internet that, back in the medieval days in England, this leftie principle seemed to have taken its roots with the attitude Brit people had back then. Brits were walking around with swords hanging from the left portion of their belts, and this may very well be the reason why they tend to prefer people passing them by on the wayward right. With such damn paranoia evident on the most popular movies about medieval Britain, we have come to know that they do this so as to have a fighting chance, or stance, just in case someone tries to jump on their asses and club them to death! On the other hand, we Americans prefer to be on the wayward right portion of things not because we're all self-righteous and all, you know, but because we have been used to being on the passenger seat for quite some time back in medieval history. Yes, we used to ride on Brit-driven coaches and carriages, so that's why we're so used to driving and walking on the actual right portion of the damn road!
