"Here in my car", said 80s pop hero Gary Numan, "I feel safest of all". He obviously never shared the same stretch of road as me, then. Automotive tales of mirth and woe, please.

Driving in Turkey
I went to rent a car from Eurocar in BFE, Turkey, back in the mid 1980s. At the time I was flitting around Europe and the US for work, and asked the desk clerk on what side of the road they drove in Turkey. With all seriousness she told me that they drive in the shade.
I never drove the car off the lot. I was tired enough as it is, and intended to get my beer on while I was there. Other forms of transport would have to do.
Length? 2 weeks.

Got much the same answer in Malta
And also discovered that the largest vehicle has the right of way at roundabouts.
Also, the roads were baked so smooth that I could spin the wheels on a 1.2 Nova going uphill in third in the dry.
Frightening
