AS a point of intrest do you know why there is left hand and right hand drive?? it all goes back to the days of the wagon drivers with horse drawn waggons if it was a freight wagon the driver could sit to the left side of the bench and use his right hand to crack the wip over the center of the team but if he was driving a carrage with pasangers he would sit far to the right so the back lash of the wip was on the outside of the carrage and would not hit the pasangers... how about that for trivia ????>>>>glennbob
