Samoa moves to the left.
#1
Samoa moves to the left.
Samoans are now driving on the left hand side of the road instead of the right.

The official reason is so Samoans can buy cheaper cars from Australia and New Zealand.

Since the change there have been no serious accidents. The president of Samoa has declared this proves Samoans have high IQ's. (or relatively few cars)

The Samoan change is in marked contrast to the disaster (1500 dead 5000 injured)) when a change from left to right was tried in N Ireland in 1962. No one has ever been able to work out what went wrong.The plan was perfectly rational: All cars with even number plates were to change on the Monday.The rest ,the following week.
