What side of the road do you drive on in Sheffield?
If you're renting a car in Sheffield or planning a road trip around England, you'll be driving on the left. Also, the steering wheel will be on the opposite side of what you're accustomed to in the U.S. This may take a while to get the hang of, so take things slow to begin with.
