Description
A photo on our next to last night in the UK, at the Hilton London Metropole hotel....
Been to this city? If not, note the signs on the street at crossings. The Look Right likely saved my hide a few times. Apparently, locals need the warnings, too. Traffic actions are much different than from our parts of this world.

Good title, fits well the action captured. Pretty snap. Good space feeling.
Left is right and right is left! :) Great capture, interesting point of view! I am not sure if I could drive in the UK!!!
I could never imagine what it would be like to drive opposite what I had been doing all of my life. My brother is left handed and when he was in Europe he adapted perfectly. Thanks for the peek. It seems that cities are alot alike wherever they are! Nice shot. I love this angle and the time of day makes it seem as though it is just settling down for the evening with everyone on their way home. I suppose it could just as well be early morning, but I feel evening.
My friends and I discovered this by nearly getting flattened more than once on one of our trips...it's hard to overcome a lifetime of looking the other way first! Nice view, I hope it was quieter inside than it looks!
I live on a dirt road in a town that literally takes five minutes to drive all the way through...I couldn't imagine driving in that!!!!!
It's busy all over the world. Great shot. Lots to see.
Wonderful capture, Excellent well done..
I am so used to my tiny village, Tom. I would find it difficult to function in such a place Great shot. Hugs. Diane. xx
Great image of the busy street from your holiday Tom.
Very good!
Ahh A typical London street "LOOK LEFT, LOOK RIGHT" Look up, Look Down In London you never know what or from where something my hit you. A mad but Great City that I love!
Tipical of a "therapeutical State"! I've been in GB and I rented a local car, it's not so difficult to drive there.
Sublim wiev... excellent Tom... I adore!
lol Tom oh yes I know about this... had no trouble with drinving on the left side when on a tour through Britain, but: I you have to turn around, because you got the wrong way, this is the dangerous part, cause you turn around and as usual drive on the right side...lol
