Re: Spotted in Robertson
Nice bus, and pics. But I still can not get used to the driving on the wrong side of the road.
Don't argue with an idiot, people watching may not be able to tell the difference

Re: Spotted in Robertson
I know, but I didn't initially plan to come back through Robertson. I had to shoot up to Barrydale and went via Swellendam and only later realised when I took the differnt road back that I actually am going through Robertson.van Zyl wrote:Sean, you drove right past my back door - should have dropped the spare
I will be going up again soon and will drop it off when I am in the area.

Re: Spotted in Robertson
@ watercool.....we drive on the right side of the road ! you guys drive on the wrong side !
if you think about it...we drive in a clockwise motion we leave on the left and return on the right....
you guys do everything anti-clockwise !!
why do screws/bolts/nuts and most things that fasten turn clockwise then ??

Re: Spotted in Robertson
No the big question is which way does the water in the toilet spin when you flush.
I have driven on both sides of the road and it takes a few days to adapt, th big thing is just when you have to make a turm, you got to remember which side to go to. And then the shifter on a manual can catch you too. Left or right hand shift = push or pull.

Re: Spotted in Robertson
When driving left hand drive I find the biggest challenge is remembering not to change gear with the window winder.
