No matter the old and new drivers, they are used to driving the left-hand drive car. If they let you drive the right-hand drive car one day, would you still drive it? I believe most drivers are used to driving left-hand drive cars in China. But if we need to go abroad or travel by ourselves in Hong Kong and catch up with the right-hand drive car one day, will we lose our mind immediately. So today I will tell you what problems and driving habits you need to pay attention to if you are driving in the right-hand drive area.
1. Confirm manual gear or automatic gear
It's not to say automatic gear. It's international. But if the manual gear is in a different position than the left-hand drive vehicle, of course, the gear arrangement is the same, but it needs to change hands to operate. It needs to be noted that 1 and 2 are still on the far left.
2, driving
At ordinary times, I am used to driving on the right in China. When I go abroad, I need to drive on the left. When I meet in some right-hand areas, I give you a flash of high beam light. There are several meanings: remind you to turn off the high beam, go to the police for speed measurement or temporary inspection, and pay attention not to overspeed. When I meet the roundabout, I need to pay attention to the right side rather than the left side. The same thing is that the vehicles in the roundabout have the highest right of way.
In a right-hand drive country, it's better to be familiar with the local traffic laws and driving habits first. Don't drive in the local area with the domestic traffic habits. Be polite to pedestrians, and don't occupy the lane. If you need to overtake, you should overtake from the right. There is also a point that the left turn of the right-hand drive vehicle does not need to wait for the signal light. If there is no clear direction indicator light, it is the same as the right turn of the left-hand drive vehicle in China.
