I didn't have that trouble in other Commonwealth countries.
You mean Aus/NZ/Canada, places with lots of space? Wouldn't surprise me.

Aus/NZ have smaller individual parking bays than the US.

Well I just bought a bike after moving to the US and to my surprise,
half way down a steep gravel driveway, discover that squeezing the
left lever applies the front brake.
Is this the way for all US bicycles? How do you cope if you ride a
motorbike with the front brake on the right??

Not all. Mine are in the USA and the right lever
operates the front brake.

buy the factory service manual for the vehicle, read the circuit
diagram, go from there. unless your vehicle has some bizarre
dependency, it's totally doable.

Oh, I don't doubt that a bit. I just expect it to be easy... like my
I prefer my women.

Try working the shift lever in a car with your left hand. That can be
harder to get used to than driving on the other side of the road.

lol....I once had a BSA Goldstar, more confusing than British shifting and
the above was figuring out the Lucas electronics system.

The British had some jewels however;
British Spitfire
Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II
1965 Triumph Bonneville 650
1962 XKE Jaguar
the Beatles

eyes, the black eyes Chief"
