[Healeys] Keep left

[Bernard Cristalli]

Trains roll on the left track all over the world.
I used to have RHD cars here (France, LHD).
Once I had been called at night, half awake, I stepped into my wife's
car which was the first to go in the drive way and...
"Bloody, they to the driving wheel!"
I was seating on the passenger's seat.
