What side of the road do you drive on in Cardiff?
If you get behind the wheel in Cardiff, you'll have to drive on the left-hand side of the road. Take note that the driver's seat will also be on the opposite side to what you're used to. Consider booking a vehicle with automatic transmission if you haven't driven on the left before.
