Subject: driving on the left



The year I was in France my students were telling lots of Belgian jokes.

One I remember: The Belgians decided they were going to imitate the British

and drive on the left side of the road. First they were going to have the

trucks do it, and if that worked, then the cars would do it too.



Dad (who isn't French and, as far as I know, has never set foot

in Belgium) told me one about the Belgian who decided against taking

his vacation in England because he heard they drive on the left there,

and on experiment he found it just too nerve-wracking.
