The only 'mod' which may not be needed, is to switch the speedo to KPH for any non UK Caribbean island, they along with the US Virgin Islands follow out MPH, etc rules.

You end at one of the schools I went to and I lived on the next mountain over. I've probably been on more cruise ships than anyone reading this, yet never been on a cruise.

I’m wondering what the thought process behind doing all of this is and what would motivate someone to do such a thing? Doesn’t sound like much to brag about especially if you came to comment on here to try and sell your book.
Loved it and no corny background music just real sounds.
Brings back memories of my stay last summer. Just a beautiful island and people.
When you first time drive in stt. It's confusing but after that it is a lot of fun.
The U.S. drives on the right, while U.S. Virgin Islands drives on the left. It's unique u.s. territory that drives on the left.
It was a Final Jeopardy question
Flip side; Gibraltar which DOES belong to the UK, they drive on the right, due to potential accidents with people from Spain.
Driving a left-hand drive car on the left side of the road would freak me out. I would be nervous of having a head on collision
Drive left hand steering in left hand line, interesting
because pretty much all the cars are imported from the united states

Seriously, ain't gon lie. To me the drive's supa dupa freaky. Why he using left hand wheel n then driving like he using right hand wheel?
Because most of the cars are made in the mainland. It’s really stupid, but what can you do.
