Zamani I used to think the whole world with the exception of rebellious americans drove on the right.... shock on me! Blue are the countries like us that drive on the left side of the road and red are countries that drive on the right


Keep me wondering on which side was the first car designed to be driven?
Then who decided to drive on the other side?
NKT.

I am thinking most of those tuplaces with blue met a couple of weeks ago to pay homage to a certain old woman somewhere in the highlands of the isle of great britain. (most bila indonesia and japan... i think).


Japan manufactures so many LH drive vehicles yet themselves they drive RH-vehicles?!!!
Is it practically possible for a country to change from one system to another?
Think Think Think


Samoa has become the first country since the 1970s to change the side of the road on which cars are driven.

At 0600 local time (1700 GMT) sirens sounded and drivers were told to move from the right side to the left.

Police said that no accidents had been reported in the first hours after the switch in the island nation despite predictions of chaos from critics.

The government brought about the change to bring Samoa into line with other South Pacific countries. A two-day holiday was declared to ease traffic as people got used to the new rules.

A three-day ban on alcohol sales was also introduced to deter accidents.

Scotland


But the steering still remained on the original position? This is a disaster in the making.
The cars need to be recalled and steering re-fitted accordingly.




The worrying part was the 3 day alcohol ban.


Its only Britain and poor East African countries which will ultimately remain on the LH side of the road, in the foreseeable feature!

@Hydre
Depends on your age (or your age at heart)

If younger pitia Papyrus, K-Club, Club Next, Le-Must, Tiamo etc. You may also go for the pool parties at Club Aloha or Rock Palast in Nyamata.

If u want more relaxed atmosphere go to Sundowner, CarWash (Kwa Wahome), Le Pishe (Kiyovu) etc..

Whatever u do do not go to KBC....

Hi guys

Has anyone driven to Kampala lately?
This weekend afew of us will be driving to Kampala and then on to Kigali.

Just wanted to see if anyone can suggest
1. the better boarder to use Malaba or Busia,
2. What I can expect after crossing into Uganda and
before Kampala.
3. Joints we should not miss along the way.

Much appreciated.


Hope you have a 'solid' car for the road trip.

Many Kenyans have invested in hotels and clubs some are Kwa Korir (in Gikondo)famous for Mugithi & Ohangla and Kwa Kamau mostly for nyama choma and Cross (Kwa Mutua) for Lingala and Ohangla and for some mouth watering samaki you cannot get anywhere else.
