I had a holiday to Canada in 1996, and the opposite is true too - getting used to LHD when RHD is the norm here in Australia is quite strange. Actually what took more concentration was pushbike riding, and remembering which side of the road to be on to turn the way I wanted to go. 8-) Didn't know the mail trucks there were RHD though - is that due to the way the mail is delivered? Here our mailmen used to use pushbikes but thesedays use small Honda motorbikes instead. We get mail deliveries once a day Mon to Fri but not on public holidays, except December when we get mail 7 days a week and usual twice a day! One of the very first things I noticed about my C900's is that they seem to have been designed to use LHD controls from the outset. It was a bit strange looking at all the pushrods, etc. running against the firewall under the dash to control the brake, etc. Regards, Craig. -- Craig's Saab C900 Page --> http://nospam/~c900 Sydney, NSW Australia Craig's Saab C900 Workshop -- For all Saab C900 Enthusiasts world-wide! http://www.nospam.net http://www.nospam c900nospam.apana.org.au Come and explore our site, and check out our web-forums, mailing list, etc.
