What side of the road do you drive on in Kalpitiya?
If you're renting a car in Kalpitiya or planning a road trip in greater Sri Lanka, remember that you'll be driving on the left side of the road. Also, the steering wheel will be on a different side to what you're accustomed to in the U.S. This may feel unfamiliar at first, so drive with extra care.

Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so be sure to do your research.
