Haha, reminds me of me every time I tried to walk through the train stations in Singapore and all of those idiots kept smashing into me!

Víktor Bautista i RocaOne of my first days in Nairobi. A thing walkers pass over a highway. I keep on crashing on every one. I try to skip them, they try to skip my, but both go to the same side and crash equally...
Till I realise they had been a British colony and I was walking on my right and they on their left. I switched to the left side and no more problems.
Simon 🪗@viktorbir @EllenInEdmonton @Jedigirl here in the UK, I habitually walk to the left, but so many people don't, and even see my veering further left as being more bloody minded than helpful.
Mind you, British canals follow marine practice of passing on the right, which really confuses people who have just hired a boat and wonder why everyone seems determined to crash into them...

Oh, that's frustrating when you're surrounded by folks that don't follow the local "rules"!

@EllenInEdmonton @viktorbir @Jedigirl I'd say 'convention' rather than a rule, there's no rules for pavements (sidewalks...) but co-operative conventions serve everyone; it's the basic human survival instinct of everyone helping everyone else - or should be. I can't speak for what's happened to the UK in the last decade or three...
@mzdt @viktorbir @Jedigirl I put rules in quotations because of course, they aren't rules! Naturally, a lot of folks have migrated to the UK and other nations, bringing their programming for what side of the pavement is the "correct" one to walk on. Still, I'd be willing to bet that most newcomers are more alert to conventions than the folks who've always lived in the area. I find that groups of walkers/cyclists/runners often want to stay side-by-side, rather than giving way in a timely manner.
Tanoujin Milestone@EllenInEdmonton @mzdt @viktorbir @Jedigirl I needed 20 minutes to figure during my first visit to a beautiful left traffic capital (it is on an island and still european in geographic terms ;) walk on the left side and stop being a tourist, obviously. I was elated until I offered a joint to a couple in the park, which caused a relationship crisis 😂
a variety of corvid@Jedigirl maybe they have some kinda möbius stairs?

Pat@Jedigirl you have to go down backwards. that's the part of the sign you can' see here
Tucker Teague@Jedigirl I think it's a great rule. Keeps things interesting.
Dhavide AruliahYeah, this looks like trolling to me.

Dave Marshall@Jedigirl They just need to remove the word "from."
Left-hand traffic (LHT) and right-hand traffic (RHT) are the practices, in bidirectional traffic, of keeping to the left side or to the right side of the road, respectively. They are fundamental to traffic flow, and are sometimes referred to as the rule of the road. The terms right- and left-hand drive refer to the position of the driver and the steering wheel in the vehicle and are, in automobiles, the reverse of the terms right- and left-hand traffic.
RHT= 165 countries
LHT= 75
Tim Ward ⭐🇪🇺🔶 #FBPE@amiserabilist @Jedigirl For extra points, there are countries which use the WRONG TYPE OF CAR. Well, there's Burma, I don't know of any others.
Flaming Cheeto@Jedigirl ah, I see it: they forgot to say which group should be walking backwards

RDS (shawphd on Twitter)@Jedigirl This sort of stuff is why directions like “river right” and “river left” exist in canoeing. (i.e. to the right or left when facing downstream; the river’s left is your right when paddling upstream).
Peter Lee@shawrd773 @Jedigirl don’t canoeists use Port and Starboard like the rest of the maritime community?
@peteralee @Jedigirl Those aren’t helpful when you’re telling folks which bank to meet up on. 🙂
@shawrd773 @Jedigirl fair point!
lko2181@Jedigirl ummm no

Jocelyn Sordoni@Jedigirl what bureaucratic idiocy!
Whitmad@Jedigirl This reminds me of a policy in the Monster Raving Loony Party election manifesto many years ago. They promised to transition the UK from driving on the left to driving on the right, but the plan was to phase this in gradually, starting with buses and heavy lorries.
Yaoi Box Balloon@Jedigirl CHAOS
Let it begin.
Karl-Heinz ZimmerShould have used Starboard and Port. 😂

llewelly@Jedigirl this is how self-driving cars work.
roofuskit@Jedigirl it's an Auditor trap.

Dachary@Jedigirl Perfect example of why people should hire technical writers.

Aron Pilhofer 🍩@Jedigirl I’m on my way to NICAR so this is top of mind... but oh my would Tom Torok have loved this.
Maria De Agosto@Jedigirl must be the same foreign person that was mad at the people coming in and out of the beach at Tavira Island (Algarve, Portugal) as they pleased and not following a proper order. Mind you, nobody was bumping into each other...
