OK... so I suppose driving RHD in a LHD country sounds weird... but think again, in Hong Kong and even Japan, the practice is just the same: LHD in RHD area! Should any car from China (LHD) to be banned to enter HK because of driving position difference? HELL no!

see the difference?

I saw some Brand New Postal trucks to-day here in london and they are RHD. These are the walk-in-van type but still are driven everyday on our roads in business.  :)

Lots of RHD vehicles around here, mostly Nissan Skylines and strange-looking vans like this one. I'm amazed you can even get insurance for these crap-cans. This is a Nissan S-Cargo, which is an appropriate name if I've ever heard one.
