During test drives, I actually taught how is to drive on the opposite side. What can I say... Well everything is up side down. I'm sitting in the car, ok, I have to get in from the other side, this I figured out due to natural intelligence. In the car some parts are being replaced, but most of it remains normal. Pedals are as in our cars, the clutch on the left foot. The same with the gearshift. But by sitting on the other side, the first gear is actually like our fifth gear back at home. But when I'm properly focused, it's ok. But they exchanged levers on the steering wheel as well! So instead of turn signals there are wipers and vice versa.
So my first ride looked like this. Immediately at the first intersection I turned on wipers and delaer is looking at me, if I'm ok, that there is no rain ... but what shall I tell him when theya have everything opposite. But what concerns the actual driving, that is quite easy. The center line is back in the driver's side, so that it goes more or less. Just not to forget and don't go from first gear to the second via reverse, as I managed that few times already. In the city there is 60 everywhere, like the old days at home. Only they are quite sensitive for speeding. A colleague went about 7 km/h more and already been fined 80 dollars. Outside of the city on the highway they drive max. 100 km/h, so it's so slow here to move from place to place.
