I used to work on a minesite, and there was an instance of overseas employees visiting, being given vehicles, and proceeding to travel down 100kmh roads at 4 oclock in the morning on the wrong side of the road.
On the other hand, driving in America, I had a bad habit of always turning left into the left lane, not the right. It is hard to undo years of conditioning and diliberately drive on the "wrong" side of the road. Lucky that car had ADAS braking.
