Is driving in Canada left-hand or right-hand drive?
2 Answers
Driving in Canada is left-hand drive. Here is a brief introduction about Canada: 1. Basic information: Canada (English/French: Canada) is a North American country located in the northern part of North America, with both maritime and land borders. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the east, the Pacific Ocean to the west, the U.S. state of Alaska to the northwest, the contiguous United States to the south, and the Arctic Ocean to the north. 2. Land area: Canada has a land area of 9.98 million square kilometers, ranking second in the world. Of this, 890,000 square kilometers are covered by freshwater. The climate is mostly subarctic continental and temperate continental humid, with polar long-cold climate in the northern polar regions. As of November 2019, Canada is divided into 10 provinces and 3 territories, with its capital in Ottawa.
I've been driving for several decades. Here in Canada, the steering wheel is on the left, so we drive on the right side of the road. The winter when I first got my driver's license, I took a long-distance trip from Toronto to Montreal. There was heavy snow on the road, but traffic was quite smooth because the rules here are designed reasonably. Remembering to keep right makes turns and lane changes safer, especially at city intersections—don't take the wrong lane. A few years ago when I was on a business trip to the UK, where the driving side is opposite, it took me a few days to get used to it. I suggest that beginners drive familiar routes several times to get accustomed, and also take the opportunity to check the car lights and tire wear. Following the rules saves a lot of trouble, and on Canadian highways, the scenery is beautiful, making driving quite enjoyable.
