Napolean was left handed, so forced everyone he conquered to drive on the other side of the road.
hence, LHD people are complete pansies.

IB4R - Australia - RHD.
Agree on all accountsabove.
90% give or take 10%.. Of the world is right sided, It's only smart to give that dominate side more control, With RHD your right hand never leaves the wheel, Those that are right handed with LHD cars might stick there right hand on the wheel and drive while resting the left arm.
But i'm sure people could go both ways after some practice, Like Left foot braking it becomes natural.
It would be easier if the whole world drove on the same side of the road and same side of the car, Sometimes LHD and RHD gets in the way of getting great cars to some country's (Ford Oz)
