I travel for a living, which means I rent a lot of cars. I used to have that moment when I pulled into the gas station and suddenly realized that I didn’t know which side the gas cap was on. Then, I would crane my neck trying to spot it out of the side view mirrors.
Along the way, someone showed me a trick. On most modern cars, the fuel gauge icon on the dashboard has a little arrow next to it pointing to the correct side of the car. No more confusion. See the sample image:
So go forth and spread the knowledge.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Heh, surprised more people don’t know this one. I only passed my test a few months ago but my driving instructor told me about this one.
This is the single most informative blog post I have ever read.
