About Driving Side

[edit]

Driving side should be right 2402:4000:B198:5EF5:7D81:619A:6E4A:5FED (talk) 09:01, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have amended the template which was saying Driving side rather than Drives on. In Sri Lanka, the driving side is the right (driver sits on the right of the car) while the driver drives on the left. SilkTork (talk) 15:18, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
