Driving in Japan with the wheel on the right side. The first time I did that last year I drove on the wrong side of the road about 5 times and got a shock every time when I saw all the ghost drivers just to quickly realize that it’s me who is driving the wrong way. This year it only happened one time, so my brain seems to adapt to that better and better.

      The best part is … you’re in Japan! … that in itself is amazing. Good for you.

        the fact that it would be extremely confusing to get to one when you’re driving on a opposite lane than you’re used to?

        which is what they were talking about

            bruh… they are literally saying it in the context of “well I am glad I haven’t had to go to one because they don’t really exist here”

            not that it’s a good thing for japan to not have roundabouts so some foreigners don’t have to drive them. no one is saying roundabouts are bad.
