> Who wants to speculate how long it will be until self-driving cars are common place in the UK?

And it should be able to automatically detect that it's in the UK and drive on the left side of the road... I'm curious - can you even get a Tesla in the UK (or Japan or Australia, etc), and do they make a right-side driver model?

There are a lot of Model Ss to be found in my area of London. All Right-hand drive.

There is even a showroom selling them + the X in the local shopping centre (mall) and 3 (I think) super-chargers in the car park.

After Model S, most common is the Leaf. (also right-hand drive)

They do make right hand drive cars. I've seen one in Hong Kong.

One advantage for self driving cars in the future: no "driver's side". The seats are just seats.
