You Can Drive On The Right Side Of The Road, Which Is The Wrong Side Of The Road

Everyone is aware that English drivers always travel on the left side of the road. There is one neighborhood in the UK, though, where tourists may reconnect with their ancestors.


The iconic Savoy, which has a driveway named Savoy Court going up to it, is located just off The Strand. British drivers are required to drive on the opposite side of the road on this particular road, with the words "IN" and "OUT" painted in large characters on the pavement to prevent unpleasant accidents.


Horse-drawn or mechanical vehicles have entered and exited "Savoy Court" on the right side of the road for more than a century. This is mainly because of how the "Court" was built. Driving on the right side of the road makes it simpler to approach and depart from the hotel. Savoy Court is a home that is privately owned. Since it solely goes to the hotel, it is not a public thoroughfare. Therefore, it is not against British traffic laws to drive on the right side of the road. The lady or dignitary would customarily sit behind the driver when being chauffeured in a horse-drawn carriage, which may be interesting to notice. The driver or the hotel doorman was able to open the door without having to walk past the automobile by approaching the hotel from the right-hand side of the road. This would enable the lady to exit the carriage and enter the hotel without stopping.
