Which side of the road do cars drive on in China?
1 Answers
In China, cars are right-hand drive, meaning they drive on the right side of the road. This is somewhat related to the characteristics of the northern and southern hemispheres. Drivers with a Chinese driver's license cannot drive in the southern hemisphere because cars there are left-hand drive. More details are as follows: Detail one: Generally, cars that drive on the right side of the road have the steering wheel on the left, while cars that drive on the left side have the steering wheel on the right. Chinese cars are left-hand drive and drive on the right side of the road, whereas Japanese cars drive on the left side, so their steering wheels are on the right, making them right-hand drive. Detail two: If someone with a Chinese driver's license wants to drive abroad, they need to obtain a foreign driver's license. When purchasing imported vehicles, they should avoid buying those that have been converted from right-hand drive to left-hand drive, as this can lead to many issues later in the car's usage. Driving abroad without a foreign driver's license is illegal.
