Visitors to the uk be warned
I really don't want to discourage anyone from visiting the UK and Scotland in particular, but we have had rather too many accidents with collisions of vehicles being driven by visitors who were driving on the WRONG side of the road.
WE IN THE UK DRIVE ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE ROAD.
ALSO
Only the other week, we had an American pedestrian killed instantly when he stepped out onto the road directly in front of oncoming traffic. He looked the wrong way before stepping out onto the road, giving the driver of the on coming vehicle NO chance of avoiding him.
SO.
PEDESTRIANS NEED TO LOOK RIGHT then, LEFT and, I repeat, RIGHT AGAIN. BEFORE stepping off the pavement(verge).
Take care.
