*if "britain's left side driving is wrong" was a terms of service, then countries like Malaysia,India,Pakistan,Australia,Newzealand,Tanzania,South Africa would've clicked "I Disagree"*
The title: “Why the British drive on the wrong side” If that is the case where if they are simply different then they are doing it wrong, why don’t people ask “Why does the US use the wrong units?”
You guys are so stupid. When you stand in the north direction, the 90° counter clockwise is left and the 90° clockwise is right true but if you turn 180° counter clockwise or clockwise its the opposite the left side is your right the right side is your left. If you didn’t understand here is an example: when a car is infront of you first of all you say in your mind (hey is he driving his car to the left side? After that you realize its the opposite direction. After that oh phew, he is actually driving right side not to the left).
2:01 | Here in (Metro) Manila, we have this thing called "Number Coding Scheme". You are right about that and you can't drive when your plate ends with a specific number. Here are the scheme in numbers: Monday - Ends with 1-2 Tuesday - 3-4 Wednesday - 5-6 Thursday - 7-8 Friday - 9-0 There are no codings on weekends
@@shreyasdharashivkar8027 I know, but emergency vehicles like ambulances, fire trucks, and other government vehicles are exempted in number coding scheme. It only applies in private vehicles.
@@shreyasdharashivkar8027 not all of places on Phillipines have codings tho. Despite of emergency vehicles being excempted on coding rule. Theres still a window hours (meaning like a certain hour the coding wont be effective) and alot of places with no codings for a non special/emergency vehicles. Most codings only occurs mostly on most traffic roads/ national highways etc.
In the US it's normal to go 10 MPH but in New Zealand (my country) if you go 10 km/h over the limit, you'll get a lovely ticket in the mail The speed zone are 50 km/h, 70 km/h, 80 km/h, 100 km/h, 110 km/h (For USA km/h converted to MPH, 31 MPH, 43 MPH, 49 MPH, 62 MPH, 68 MPH)
Well in Cyprus i think its a good rule to not eat while driving because it can get you in a accident only eat in car while your not driving or someone is driving and you dont have the wheel
To be honest I don't think the British even remotely cared about africa lol they where just like those kids that can get stuck in ANYTHING that has a hole in it and in this case the British raj was the hole and the great Britain was the kid
I saw u at the Tokyo airport in japan but a few minutes later when i tried to find you again to say hi then I couldn’t find you so i think you went in the lounge probably (btw for proof you were wearing your 40% shirt and a red neck pillow while holding your phone) and also i think it was September 2nd.
Stick to the left and you will always be right!!! We were taught this at school so we would always walk on the left in the hallways & on stairs. Same applies to our roads in the UK...and the best politics!!!
@@NasDaily I just watched it fully and I'm very happy with it Please keep doing such videos because more people like your content when their country is mentioned :)
In the beginning (0:16) you labled a scene from the UK as Germany, yet in the end (3:14) you show a scene from Germany as the UK. It all comes full circle.
Left side drive is convenient for motorcycles which have a stand on the left side thus, you can get off the side of the road from the left without any hindetance but in right side drive countries, you have to get down on the side of traffic. Its also good to have your mostly dominant right hand on the steering while you shift with the left hand.
Driving on the "right side" doesn't mean it's the RIGHT way. Driving on the "left side" doesn't mean it's WRONG. Both are just DIFFERENT!!! It's not a crazy thing to drive on the left side. In countries where people drive through left side have steering on the right and in countries where people drive on the right side have steering on the left side. It's not good to jugde different as wrong.
I was in the UK a week ago and it was very strange to see how they drive on the other side of the road for the first time. The world is so awesome and deserves exploring! This episode was so much fun to be a part of! Hope you like it 🤍
Yes indeed, there's so much we don't know about the world, and travel is one of the most fun ways to know more about it!! Thank you for helping us tell this story Eisa 😄
Hi Nas. I love your videos, I watch them every day. Everything you do is very impressive. I live in Russia and I really want to work in such a huge team for you. If possible?!!!
One theory is that in ancient/medieval times people rode chariots and rode horses on the left so their weapon hand (generally right) was ready to fight any people coming the other way. Also it’s not just the uk it’s also Ireland, malta, Australia, New Zealand, India, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Kenya, South Africa etc. Additionally if one side were to be ‘right’ then it would probably be driving on the left because I see no advantage to driving on the right Edit: I just watched the video and saw the nas also explained this
The way I understand it is the "passing on the left" was established throughout Europe from Roman times, and Europe switched sides under Napoleon. Britain, not being under Napoleon's rules however never changed. Other parts of Europe not under Napoleon (Portugal, Russia, Austria, Prussia, Netherlands) stayed on the left until as late as the 20th century in some cases. It made sense on the continent to align road rules but the UK rule actually was the original.
I am in Bangladesh and we drive the opposite side of the US! But the foreign people who drives on the left side think right is cool and right thinks left is. This make me wonder no matter how perfect we are we always try to be better!
In Indonesia (JKT), we have the Ganjil/ Genap System. In English, it translates to odd/even system. A car with an even or odd licence plate can access specific roads. So, the licence plate number (even or odd) has to be the same as the even/odd date. So Jakartans got smart by buying two cars. (It does not apply to EV's tho)
