Sorry, I was following the rule of the fellow who put it in horse terms. The
left being the side you mount on and therefore the "near side". Guess that
is not normally carried over with cars but since in racing you don't drive
on any particular side of the road it seemed appropriate.
Cheers,

Actually, that would be the near-side, because it is closer to the kerb. The
off-side is the driver's side.
