It is a joke but the sad thing is that a lot of people obivously drive like that. You either drive like a maniac or have to anticipate 70 pound rocks being thrown at you while you're driving.

"You yanks and canucks drive on the wrong side of the road."

Yeah but since we all drive on the wrong side it balances out. As long as everyone breaks the rules we're okay.

Here's a few extra rules I would add:

When using a cel-phone while driving make sure to make an obvious signal to the other drivers so that they know you're on the phone and they shouldn't disturb you. Popular signals include driving at least 30 under the speed limit, driving at least 30 over the speed limit, driving through red lights, and weaving in and out of the oncoming lane. The more important the phone call the more obvious the signal should be.

Yellow lights mean go faster.

Remember that insurance is useless unless you have an accident. Therefore it's important to routinely trick people into hitting you so as to make sure your insurance isn't going to waste. Remember that no matter how unpredictable you were driving as long as they hit you it's their fault.

Make sure to turn your head when talking to the passenger next to you. Keeping your eyes on the road is rude to the other person. You should always make eye contact so they can acknowledge that you're listening.

And a bonus rule for pedestrians:
Never cross the street at a crosswalk at an intersection. It's just an inconvienence for people trying to turn. Instead make sure to dart in front of traffic regardless of how close to the crosswalk you are.

There's a funny ass commercial about driving while talking on a mobile phone here:

Instructor: Ok, now pull away from the curb....good.
Now drive at a safe speed....good.
*phone rings*
Oh, there's the phone. Go ahead and reach for it.
*girl reaches for phone in back seat*
Take your eyes of the road.
*girl looks for phone*
Good. Now say hello.
girl: Oh hi!
instructor: now don't pay attention to the road.
Oops! Swerve onto the curb and knock over the bins.
*car swerves onto curb*

Hahaha. Hilarious.

We were in the States like 7 years ago, and my dad was fined for not having an international licence.

No, we drive on the RIGHT side of the road. You guys drive on the WRONG aka LEFT side of the road. That's just nuts.
