Is it safe to drive on the left in St. Thomas?
Driving on the left is safe when you stay alert — locals do it every day. The main adjustment is that the steering wheel is on the left side of the car, so the driver sits closest to the curb rather than the center line. Take it slowly at intersections, roundabouts, and when pulling out of parking spots. Most drivers adapt within the first hour.
