"Or, when I'm in a car without any indication of which side the gas tank is on."
Very easy: most American cars have the gas tank on the left, most Asian/European cars have it on the right.
- coryl 13y agoWait, whats the definition of an Asian/European car. The manufacturer or the geographic location? Cause I'm pretty sure Hondas and Toyotas have gas on the left.
- dalek_cannes 13y agoSuzukis have them on the left too.
- rhuppert 13y agoI'm shocked my Tesla Model S is lacking in this feature. Elon must have been asleep at the wheel.
- BillyMaize 13y agoWait what? Since when does a tesla car have a gas tank or am I missing something?
- andrewingram 13y agoI think that's the joke
- andrewingram 13y agoIn the UK, the balance is roughly 50/50, from a sample size of 100 (me going into streets and counting the cars). I did a simulation of petrol stations when I was at university, trying to work out optimal arrangements of pumps, so I needed to know if there was a bias towards the fuel cap being on a particular side of the car (there wasn't). This could be because in the UK our cars come from a wide-variety of places.
