Junction 8 on the M1 was designed "wrong way round"
in Mrs Castle's time to test the idea of designing junctions
so that they could be changed over to right-hand drive,
but the experiment was never repeated.

In what way was it designed the wrong way round? Just wrong gradients and
curvatures?

Anyway, I really think that the world's motor copmpanies should standardise
the side that the indicator stick is on.

Would it be too hard to design cars such that the pedals, steering wheel and
glovebox could be swapped when you drive from one country to another?
