File talk:Countries driving on the left or right.svg
Would it be possible to make this map use one of the maps where the small island countries are marked with circles? I don't have an SVG editor that I know how to use unfortunately! The smaller islands don't have land borders to worry about so there's a higher chance of them using a different side of the road to the countries around them. I can't even see Malta on the map, for example. --Nikki (talk) 02:37, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
Vanuatu
[edit]Vanuatu's blue. According to the en-wiki article, it should be red. Kwamikagami (talk) 07:39, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
Samoa drive on the left
[edit]Samoa from today drive on the left:
- Samoa prepares to drive on the left (english)
- Samoans fight the switch from right to left (english)
- Ein Inselstaat führt den Linksverkehr ein (deutsch)

Updating image/thumbnail
[edit]Hi guys. I changed Samoa to blue and uploaded that new version of the file, but it hasn't seemed to refresh, or at least render new thumbnails. Any suggestions? Haku8645 (talk) 19:39, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
Choice of colours
[edit]I was just wondering why red has been chosen to illustrate the right, and blue the left? This seems unusual. Not looking to change things really, just curious. Mr.choppers (talk) 09:23, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
West Bank
[edit]West Bank is grey in your map, but they drive on the right.--Molch-Entertainment 20:02, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
- I've added the West Bank and Gaza strip to right-hand drive traffic. Jurryaany (talk) 20:08, 2 September 2016 (UTC)
Easter Island
[edit]I guess Pitcairn confused me. Do you think we'd add Easter Island too? - Flexman (talk) 21:12, 22 April 2017 (UTC)
Antarctica
[edit]Antarctica is shown in red in most versions of the map. However, the en.wikipedia article on left and right hand traffic makes no mention of Antarctica. I wonder if there is any civilian or scientific road traffic that can be classified as left or right; and if so, if sources are available. Since the only civilian non-scientific settlements in Antarctica are Chilean and Argentinian, assuming RHT is reasonable but sources would be better especially considering the back and forth in the map history. –2405:6584:82A0:2600:598A:228F:B6B7:9415 12:48, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
- I doubt whether there are any established roads in the conventional sense. Probably it would be better to just leave it off the map... AnonMoos (talk) 14:09, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
- @AnonMoos: there is at least one established road and hence some tracts in Antarctica should be presented. But, of course, clueless to flood-fill a vast undeveloped territory without a functional authority. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 08:04, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
It should be in grey. There's no evidence of this rule applying to Antarctica on a continent-wide basis. Xophe84 (talk) 01:00, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
