When in Europe I visited Ireland (6 days cycling), Scotland and London who all drive on the left... Paris, LOL... yeah I actually commented that the driving reminded me of Tijuana, Mexico! Whoever fits gets to go..technically they're supposed to be on the right... a minor technicality to be sure! LOL
Yep it sure makes driving interesting and even crossing the road when you have cars coming from a direction you are not use to. My Husband and I agree that driving a car is not too bad because you know the driver stays nearest the middle white line but on a motorbike and push bike it easy to forget. No visual clues to prompt when you are daydreaming. Yikes

If you hire a car and decide to visit Tassie you will have a great time zipping around everything is so close.

Driving in Melbourne can be challenging though if you are already coping with driving on the wrong side. They have trams thru the city and a few bizarre rules apply when driving near them (not bizarre for Victorians but definitely for girls from Western Australia).

Let me know if you need any other info. Im happy to help and love talking about home.
