The way I had it explained to me is this:
A long time ago, the time of horses, chariots and walking, people were typically armed. Being on the right side had one's shield out against passing persons (the vast majority of people are right-handed). This was the Roman custom and Rome pretty much took over the whole known Western world.
In the English isles, though, the tribes there practiced the reverse - you passed someone with your weapon closest. The Romans never did get a real strong foothold in the British Isles and many customs remained.

in the united kingdom (it is England AND Wales, Scotland and northern eire) wechronic on a diverse ingredient of the line, not the incorrect ingredient. You, your self, suggested that roads bypass 2 strategies so there could be 2 strategies of applying down them. Why could desire to one be greater suitable than the different ? we are actually not on my own in applying on a diverse ingredient to that centre of the universe primary because of the fact the rustic.

They don't. They drive on the side of the road that their traffic laws require.
