To truly cater to the majority, NZ would have to switch sides!
The issue is not about driving on the right or wrong err left side of the road. It is really just about this give way rule. In right driving countries the one to your right has the right of way. So to apply this to the left driving countries the left ones should have the right of way. In most of these countries this is in place. BUT NOT IN NZ! YET?!
