A friend of mine went to Ireland a while back and said he was doing ok

country lane about 1 1/2 vehicles wide a car came over a hill directly
in front of him...and he turned quickly toward the side. Guess in what
direction... Oops. 
It was dark and stormy night.... in England, many years ago. I was
driving,
trying not to lose sight of our host who was leading (and going *fast*)
As I
was going into a right turn onto a small side road, a car came against us
from
the small road, without stopping. For a split second I fought with an
instinctive urge to keep to the right of the oncoming car - luckily I
didn't
give in!
My drowsing passengers was wide awake after that experience. g
The roundabouts. It's the roundabouts that will get you. I panic every
time I enter a roundabout in the UK.
Be glad you don't live in Springfield, MA then.
