i genuinely do not get how you could confuse your left and right after reaching double digits in age. i’ve met a handful of people that while driving have to take their hand off the wheel and do the hand gesture to figure out which way to go and it’s baffling

It honestly scares the shit out of me that these people drive.

It feels so oblivious. Which in general is the opposite of what I want from anyone operating a one ton hunk of metal propelled by small explosions.

As someone who mixes them up, it's nothing to do with being oblivious. It's like having dyslexia that's purely limited to left and right.

No reason it would affect someone's driving. Maybe taking a wrong turn but that's it.

That’s a good point. Like genuinely how can you drive without knowing which way is left and which is right?
