Did you know that Sweden used to drive on the left? In fact, this traffic system existed until the late 1960s - which led to all sorts of problems. So on September 3, 1967, all traffic was switched to right-hand traffic from one day to another. But how do you do something like that? Let's find out. A film by Matthias Schwarzer. -------------------------------- Many thanks to the National Library of Sweden for allowing me to use their historical photos.
