Be careful with that assumption as not all countries have the driver on the left.

True, but Germany is one of those that do, so I think it's a safe analogy in this case.

Although, since Australia is driving in an inverted position, from my perspective they do have the driver on the left.

I think Bermuda and the Cayman Islands would also be confused. Dibs on helping them fix their left/right robot issues.

As long as you start an FRC team there I don't see why you can't have Dibs.
