Graeme,
I think Angela, being a mature and reasoned adult would read my tongue-in-cheek remark, note the smiley face at the end, and make the quite reasonable assumption that I am engaging in some levity and would not take said remark to mean she should eschew years of good driving habits...,,
As for making light of unlawful activity ...... whilst I know this will come as a shock, failing to indicate will NOT put you on the FBI’s top ten most wanted list, or the Guardia Civil Trafico’s “must stop and harass on sight” list. (Not that the Guardia Civil HAVE any such list, in case anybody thought I was being serious.)
Angela - don’t worry about driving here. Transitioning to driving on the right hand side of the road will come easily, I promise. Drivers are more courteous, and just follow the rest of the cars around the roundabout. You’ll be surprised at how quickly driving on the right hand side of the road feels “normal”. Except around bigger cities (Murcia, Almería etc), traffic is not so heavy as to create anxiety in a driver new to left-hand drive. Relax, enjoy the stunning scenery, fabulous weather and great roads and you’ll settle into it very quickly.
Un saludo, Darío
