When I was a kid, we had a 1958 Pontiac while we lived in Germany. We
traveled to several countries over our four years.  The Pontiac was well
suited for the Autobahns and Motorways, but when you took rural routes, it
would get scary.
Meeting a Lorry in England on a narrow road with no verge was a real treat,
especially when you forgot where you were and pulled to the right instead
of the left, confounding the other driver!

Regards,

Sonny
