Why did more people not order right hand drive cars when Sweden drove on the left? My Swedish import is right hand drive, with doors on the left, but I understand that's quite rare for a '64

sweden had been planning to switch to driving on the right side since the 50s. It just took longer than expected.

all countries next to sweden drive on the right side, makes things much easier all around.
