Yeah that would suck. If I had to drive in the UK it would be bad enough that I need to shift, and I accidentally pick up my *right* hand to do it, inadvertently unlatching the door :P Needless to say it would be bad. That said, I normally drive a manual transmission myself.
What kind of traffic did you drive in? That makes a difference, too. If it's out west, and there's country roads, ok. But I remember driving to Connecticut, they told us "avoid New York" and get off of I-95 before it enters Manhattan and becomes a circus. So I took the advice, and we went around via Queens or Brooklyn or wherever the hell we did it. They say that only New York drivers manage to survive the carnage of I-95 as it goes through Manhattan. I'm used to living out in the sticks (sort of) and not city-driving, and Baltimore is trying enough for me. And that is in a little compact car.
But I digress.
Road trips are great, and I've never had the opportunity to do it out west. Only from where I live (NW of Baltimore) to Virginia Beach. It was like, what, six hours or so....? But the interstates aren't as interesting.
Is there even a speed limit out west? Is that kinda where you drove?
