Convention or law that governs the side of
the road on which traffic drives. In Britain,
this states that vehicles should be kept to
the left of the road or be liable for any
ensuing damage. The reverse applies nearly
everywhere else in the world, all traffic
keeping to the right, which is also the rule
at sea and for two ships crossing, when the
one having the other on its starboard must
give way.
