Goes both ways, have seen something like this at a small airport with restricted manouvering room, so driver just changes ends instead of reversing.

I remember the tram cars here in Liverpool,one route Seaforth to Pier Head controls at both ends,tram could not turn around at Pier Head or Seaforth.The driver or conductor had to change the boom on top of the tram from front to back.Wooden slatted seats which you could move so that you were always facing forward if you wished.245-John-H-1.jpg

Wight link ferries at Lymington are the same, they just have to remember to change the nav lights each trip,frequently on the radio you will hear the skippers reminding each other if they have forgotten. Kt

Elementary my dear Watson. Think J in Oz #8 has it. But if drivers door not shown must be on other side (kerb side) so must be going to the left. If driving on right side of road. What the heck left right left right I had a good job and I left your right. JS
