I think you over estimate the Arab world’s dedication to automotive safety.
Even the back roads of Texas will put you on ranch-to-market roads with 55+ mph limits. Cruising down a two-lane blacktop at 55 in this (barely) adult-sized Tiny Tots Playmobile with GMC 2500's barreling at you from all directions at 70+ will test your meddle.
If you lived in a beach community with a maximum speed of 30 mph and never planned to drive this car outside the community, then, yeah, this would be an interesting option.
I’m not ambidextrous either, I normally can’t do shit with my left hand. When my right hand was in a brace due to a sprain, I almost poked my eye out trying to brush my teeth with the left. However, I drove a RHD Mondeo for 6 months and it was nothing to switch to left hand shifting. It probably would have been a…

You’re comment got me thinking, how many TV shows have been adapted from movies? The other way round is obviously common, but Logan’s Run is the only other big-to-small transition I can think of. Do I just have a mental block and there are dozens of examples?
Well, there is one way to make F1 cars infinitely safer.
I was going to suggest these as rainy-day back ups...
“Do you remember [Niki] Lauda at Fuji in ‘76? He was the only one of the drivers to give up racing in the rain. Today, every driver thinks as Lauda did then.”
Except, damn, there were a lot of light sources in the illustrators head. One on the right side of the van, shining through the cargo door, one behind the van, shining through the rear hatch (and these two can’t be the same since the light through the rear is centered while the light through the cargo door is angled).…
Yes, it is a cool car in a classic movie, but underrated? The movie made the car so popular that it was renamed for the movie.
While the MKI cars were once derided for being the chosen rides of sorority sisters and Mean Girls wannabes, the MKIII Cabrios never seemed to be tarred with the same stigma.
