Drove in Scandinavia the Width & Breadth..Drove All Over Europe..Went from Northern France to through the Pyrenees to Spain..Drove in the USA..Not a Problem..A Few of My Trips have been in Trucks, Cars & Motorcycle..Roundabouts on the Other Side of the Road Can Take a Moment But You Dont Come Across them So Often Abroad..
