New Britain herald., 1929-04-26

And just as the bewildered autoist gets use to left driving in Austria he must steel his nerves to switch back to the right rule of the road in 1uGoslavia and Italy.
 How Our Custom Arose
 "frohao'v orr crstcm had its or igin because It was .dtural 10 grasp weapons with the right hand whi.e the left hand carried the shield over the heart on the left side Of 'he body. From this it follows that armed men passed each other shield to shield, left hand to left hand.
 That fact accounts for the pedes- trian custom of the keeping to the right.
 Even in England the rule of the sidewalk or pathway is keep to the right How then. did England 4c- quire the custom of keeping to the left on highways?
 "One student of the problem finds the origin of the practice in the habit of the English coachman of sitting on the right side of the coach drivers seat, He graspe1 the whip in his light hand In passing another coach he wanted 10 be in a position where he could best prevent a collision. So he passed an oncoming coach on that coaCh's right. From his seat on the reht Of his coach he could see how near his wheels came to those of tho other vehicle.

 How did these opposite customs arise?
 For the world divides roughly half and half on the rule of the motoring road,' says a bulletin from the Washington, D. C.. headquarters of the National Geographic society.
 Present Score: 60 to f.;
 The present score is: 60 of the nations and colonies favor the right side drive: 43 cling to the left. Ira1 added one to the right side score when she decided to reverse the English rule of left de driving. which has been in use there since the World War. and return to her former rule of keeping 70 the right. The need of a uniform rule is not so apparent in North America as in Europe. Consider the problem or motorist who tries to drive from Norway to Italy through tn" Dolomites. He starts bravely out from Oslo. keeping 10 the right nn- til he reaches he Swedish border. Thereupon he keeps 10 the lett. Let him have his wits about him because. when he ferries over to Denmark, he must again move over to the right of the road. Germany the same, lie thanks heaven.
