Do you know the signs?


OK, I know it's only for British roadsigns, but how many can you get right?

Nope! I drove in Ireland. That's completely different. There are no road signs there

Quite alright. I forgive you. We didn't go very far when we got to England. Pretty much stayed in London the whole time, and relied on public transportation.

Oddly, I had no problem adjusting to the different side of the road thing there.. I had a lot of trouble when I got back.. I'd make a left turn into the oncoming lane.. happend for about a week.

The only advice I was given upon getitng my rental car was "You see that line in the middle of the road? You and the Line are always on the same side."

No one said word one about how to handle a roundabout. First one I hit, I went around 6 times before I finally escaped.

I would probably handle that much the same way I handled driving in Dublin for the first time. I pulled over to the side after over an hour driving the streets and constantly missing the turn I needed, and wept pitiously for about 20 minutes.

Well done, mate! Perhaps you should come the U.S. and, erm, drive around for a while!

I did that when I first moved to florida. It would have been nice if someone had informed me that Rt 404 was the same thing as Pineda Causeway.


There are no signs that say Pineda Causeway. None. Zero.
