No doubt after her 2 thumbs became trapped in the belt and got severed...

I wonder whether the steering feel and handling are affected?

Oh, hold on, it's a Cherokee. Never mine, carry on.

I think sitting on the right will assist the driver in his attempts at any drive-by shootings.

So they're in the States with a left hand drive car and they convert it to RHD? Way to go buddy, got a problem with money or something?

These do exist in the States and they are generally owned by Postal Delivery people, some of them do have to buy their own vehicle. My own postlady here in the US uses one.

These are manufactured mostly for Japan and UK but by special order they can be purchased new in the States.

Now, as to why anyone would want them for anything other than mail delivery, I haven't any clue...

Is it so the lazy feckers don't have to get out of the car to deliver the post? Is it really that unsafe/time consuming in America to walk round from one side of the vehicle to the other? I presume these are only used rurally.
