Why Americans and Brits Choose Different Road Sides to Drive

The Era of Innovation: Henry Ford’s Model T, with its left-side driver’s seat, revolutionized the automotive industry. Countries like Canada, Italy, and Spain transitioned to right-side driving for passenger convenience, followed by Eastern Europe and Sweden in subsequent decades.

Britain’s Unwavering Tradition: Despite global transitions, the United Kingdom remains steadfast in its commitment to left-side driving. Rooted in its history, this tradition continues to define British road culture, resistant to change.

Reflecting on Road Rules: As we navigate roads worldwide, the diverse driving conventions remind us of the intricate history woven into everyday decisions, sparking curiosity about the origins of our road customs.
