Does Taiwan drive on the left or right?
1 Answers
Taiwan drives on the right. Here are the relevant details: 1. According to regulations: On June 8, 1946, the revised 'Penalty Law for Violations' was announced on June 19, which stipulated in Article 58, Clause 7: Vehicles, horses, and pedestrians not advancing on the right side and not heeding prohibitions shall be subject to a small fine or reprimand. From then on, all vehicles nationwide drove on the right side, and post-recovery Taiwan also followed the law, switching to right-hand driving. 2. Advantages of right-hand driving: The main advantage of right-hand driving is that drivers can use their left hand to maintain control of the steering wheel while using their right hand to perform complex actions such as shifting gears and operating the dashboard, which is beneficial for right-handed drivers. Additionally, right-hand driving makes it easier for cyclists or motorcyclists to signal turns with their left hand.
