Odin.Aramina said: Sylph.Beelshamen said: Stop pulling Canada into this mess. As a French colony they are immune and protected from the evil ideals that roam the northern plains of America. FYI to any French Canadians, but most real French despise you. I have this on good authority from French people who are actually FROM FRANCE, and not 300 years decended from French ancestors. And besides, while the French had a presence there for a long time, the HUGE majority of Canada was British-goverened. As for the U.K. being in Green on the map, I'm fairly sure that if they are using the Metric system there, it's some sort of clever ruse to fool the rest of Europe into thinking they are not scheming. Back to the OP, though, as an American, I wish we'd switch to metric all over. I'm in the military and the mixture of metric and "standard" drives me insane. We have rulers in feet/inches and maps with 1 kilometer grid squares. French hate everyone anyway. Except Jerry Lewis.
But, if you think about it.
Germans hate everyone. Japanese hate everyone. Chinese hate everyone. Iran hates everyone. South Africans hate everyone. Brittish don't give a ***. Italians also don't give a ***. Americans don't give a ***.
Only group of people who like outsiders is Sweedish, Egypt, and Mexico.
Because we usually bring money with us.

Hold your breath.
ENGLAND drives on the left side of the road.
*gasp* countries driving on the left hand side generally have less accident's
how you guys crash over there when 95% of your roads are straight lines amuses me lol
i remember when i went to america, was on this road and the gps said: slight left turn in one hundred and 15 miles
then we finally got to it and it wasnt even a real turn..

My milk is measured in pints, my penis is measured in inches, the distance from my car to the turn out from my road is measured in yards, and the distance from my house to my sister's house is measured in miles.
However, the distance measured from the train station to London is measured in kilometres, when I run a race at school I'm running the 100 metres, when I'm measuring the width of a USB socket I'm measuring in centimetres and when I'm measuring Rowland's peen I'm measuring in millimetres.
It's pretty *** up over here.
tl;dr: Wtf.

I'm pretty sure that Beelshamen isn't an American.
Or Alex Baldwin. Either one works.

Seriously, everytime a woman is dry-steering while I'm in the car I'm just itching to become a drivers instructor. :(

Safety factors
Research in 1969 by J. J. Leeming showed countries driving on the left have a lower collision rate than countries driving on the right. It has been suggested this is partly because humans are more commonly right-eye dominant than left-eye dominant.[21][22][23] In left-hand traffic, the predominantly better-performing right eye is used to monitor oncoming traffic and the driver's wing mirror. In right-hand traffic, oncoming traffic and the driver's wing mirror are handled by the predominantly weaker left eye. In addition, it has been argued that left sided driving is safer for elderly people given the likelihood of them having visual attention deficits on the left side and the need at intersections to watch out for vehicles approaching on the near-side lane.[24]
Cyclists and horse riders[25] typically mount from the left hand side. This places them on the kerb when driving on the left.

There was probably a *** less cars on the roads back then. That research is irrelevant.

/siderail - I've been told that if you want to see more accidents, go to Dominican Republic because the police are bicycle riders, so driver do whatever they want.
@ Beel - We'd probably just call him CPT Douchebag, which half of my soldiers can't spell anyway, but thanks for the correction.
The countries in green that you see in the picture above use the metric system. Please adapt to me and stop using that incredible retarded imperial measuring system.
Signed,
The rest of the world.
