Thousands of people in the UK drive this way when in Europe mainland.
Haven't heard news reports of thousands being killed on holiday.
Drive within the limitations - if you can't see far enough ahead to
overtake, don't.
A friend of mine has moved to France and still insists on driving his
RHD car in a LHD country. I've done it many times, with no ill effect.

I am just curious now. Are England, Canada, Singapore and Australia the
only countries in the world with RHD, or are there more? I drove a LHD car
in a LHD country, Spain, last year, and I am still getting over it. It
wasn't so much RHD vs. LHD, but the tiny narrow streets, the insanely
homicidal drivers, and the proliferation of traffic rotaries ("rotondas")
that would put my native New England to shame.
