It's really not - ask most British people and they won't have a clue about the history of driving on the left. There was never any kind of contrarian motivation behind it. We don't get into our cars every day and excitedly seize the opportunity to defy France.
Oh and the US adopting the drive-on-the-right policy was actually to express their independence from Britain. So you're shooting yourself in the foot declaring we do it to be contrary (which is wrong) when historically it's you doing it to be contrary.
Anyway I don't know why I'm bothering, you're either a troll and therefore a knobhead, or just a knobhead.
yes , it is not the british that are contrary its America . So you are backwards . Also America came out after the brittish so that statement makes no sense in asking either .
You know nothing of Us history , they have no reason for copying America that would be stupid as America was the one who won , and if anything are the britts known for being Rebels ? its America so that is highly unlikely as well , if anything it has to be America and thier is so many flaws in what you are saying . No they did not change to be diffrent from America . Also most countrys other than for the us and a handful of others drive on that side of the road , so that means America is the wierd ones with that handful of area's . This makes no sense at all .No .
Do the British STILL drive on the wrong side just to be contrary?
