left or right?!

Let's start first with a technical lesson:

(as taught from driving centres)
On the car steering column, you have 2 stalk.
The one on left is wiper + washer,
the one on right is signal + lights.

This is the "standard" coz the common cars we have are japanese (right hand drive)

Then comes along european cars (left hand drive) and they reverse the order:
Left is for signal and right is for wipers.

And we have here, me, who drives a Korean van (right is signal) one moment on work and European van (left is signal) the next moment on play.

Ok, at least i reminded myself about the signal thingy, so i had prevented the silly moment of wiping the screen when lane changing..

Still..

Last weekend (in dad's van).. as I intended to High beam a annoying car infront..
I washed my screen with soap water.

And today (in company van).. as I intended to wash my screen while waiting for the red light:
I beamed at the taxi infront....

which prompted that cab driver an immediate look behind.

"Si gin na, beam wat beam, red light how to move..."
(my imaginative thoughts of that cab driver)

haha...
