Left and right

Slush ( snipped-for-privacy@sk.org) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :

Is your car LHD or RHD?

Which "Left" or "Right" is it?

saying :

It's the "Right" one, the wheel's on the Right not the "Left"

It's on the "Left" if you're facing the vehicle, but on the "Right" from behind the wheel.

I think that's right.

Slush ( snipped-for-privacy@sk.org) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :

Now, would they use different Left and Right for different things?

Clue: Car designers are mostly male, so there's no "Turn Left" "No, not THAT Left, the OTHER Left".

If in the UK, right refers to driver's side.

Dave Plowman (News) ( snipped-for-privacy@davenoise.co.uk) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :

I'll remember that, next time I'm in one of my LHD cars...

So long as you're driving on the right side of the road....

Malc ( snipped-for-privacy@ubht.swest.nhs.uk) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :

God, no. Somebody might hit me head-on.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember "Slush" saying something like:

The convention is from behind the wheel.

Or as I heard recently "Wedding ring left"

Indeed. Now we've cleared that up, tell me which is the front of the engine on a rear-engined VW?

Or as I heard recently "Wedding ring left"

Put your left indicator on, get out and take a look... ;-)
