Yes, I just noticed that this is LHD which is curious considering that yes, this scene was filmed on location in the Bahamas, and that country has the same rules of the roads as in the UK. There are various LHD US Ford cars appearing in the film as part of a product placement deal, but a Morris Minor built in a RHD country with LHD for export in a RHD market is quite confusing!

See for instance the Bahamas scenes in Casino Royale (2006): /vehicle_52383-Land-Rover-Range-Rover-Sport-L320-2006.html Even police cars are LHD. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bahamas_Ford_Crown_Victoria.jpg

But the Bahamas do have RHD vehicles, mainly imported from Japan. -- Last edit: 2024-11-14 02:01:37
