Notes from a Small Island

  • 5th January 2009 - Exceptions to the rules

    Happy new year, everyone! Have you all had a nice Christmas? I spent my Christmas on a trip to Europe! This time I went to three EU countries and it maked me exhausted! But I really find something interesting to share with you! This week, lets talk something about the traffic.

    When I was on my travel, I found that the cars are driven on the right! I once thought that all European countries apply same rules! In my country, we also keep right. I am now curious why does UK keep to the left? There are always many differences in traffic rules or maybe customs from countries to countries. Another interesting one is that in UK, people will flash their lamps of the car if they ask others to go first. Quite the opposite, in my country, it is a signal that I will not give up my way.

    From Xie Yi ( our own correspondent on her first year in the UK form China)
