I always thought the British terms were "kerb side" and "off side".
Their "kerb side" would be our driver's (their passenger) side, etc.
I much prefer using left & right from the driver's point of view. Less
ambiguity for those who aren't dislexic. I've always wondered.... Did
the British convention come from a dislexic driver?
Remember that when driving in the former British Empire (most of it
other than N. America anyway), left is right and right is wrong. ;-)
