What side of the road do you drive on in Matsuyama?
If you're renting a car in Matsuyama or road-tripping around Japan, you'll be driving on the left side of the road. Also, the driver's seat and some controls will be on the opposite side of what you're used to in the U.S. This may take a while to get the hang of, so take things slow to begin with.
