Were pretty sure we'll be driving ourselves (gulp). My plan was to go east to west (Salerno to Sorrento). Wondering the pros/cons vs going the other way.

1. Better to go with the flow of tour buses west to east or against? (about what time do they all head out?)

2. Better to hug the mountainside but not as spectacular of views?

3. More challenging to pull over to park for pictures when going east to west?

4. Best time of day in June to do this?


My guess is that traffic flows more or less equally in both directions. Worst is to go with the sun low in the sky - you will have it either in your eyes or blinding you from the rear view mirror. The public buses run equally in both directions. Tour buses may go in either direction and stop in several towns along the way, so there will be buses eastbound and westbound throughout the day, as well as local and tourist cars - and probably lots of motorcycles and possibly some bicycles too. It will be challenging to pull over to park for pictures in either direction, because other cars will have parked in all or almost all the possible places ahead of you. Also allow plenty of time to find parking if you want to stop at any of the towns along the way.


Also be prepared to go very slowly. For the most part, buses stop in the road for passengers (there are very few places for the to pull off the road. And when buses meet other buses or large vehicles at sharp curves, it may take quite a while until one side backs up (the large vehicles know who should back up - but it can take a long time for all the cars behind it to figure out they have to back up). The one thing you probably won't have to worry about is taking curves too quickly - chances are you won't be going very fast.


When we were there several years ago (September) the traffic was limited to one way except for locals. The reason was the buses just take too much room to be fighting with a bunch of cars. As I remember is was west to east n the mornings and east to west in the afternoons. You might want to check it out for the time you will be there.


If You drive east you are on the side of the sea. Better views from the car. Finding a spot to pull over and park may be challenging at any time if there is traffic. In 2017 they introduced some summer restrictions for Tourist buses and trucks longer than 8 meters (27ft). Those large vehicles are not allowed in any direction on weekends, holidays, and the day preceding a holiday.


Most parts of this drive have only one, two-lane road. There is no choice to be made. I'm tempted to say say that there are more actual tourist plazas on the ocean side of the road, but there aren't very many. There is no good time in June to do this. We hired a knowlegeable local car and driver, using our hotel to find someone with a reputation to maintain. Pretty expensive, but no problems with parking, finding toilets, and so on. Had independent walking time in three towns, drive-through of two more, in 8 hours, about 250 Euros.


I have driven the Costiera Amalfitano three times; once from Salerno and back then twice from Sorrento and back. It was nerve wracking and difficult from both directions. During the first drive I maintained a white knuckle death grip on the steering and did not see much of anything except the road. My wife saw a lot of nice sights, but not me. The other two times I drove the coast road it was intense, but I was not so crazy.


I have a robotic research platform with caster wheels on the front and drive wheels at the back. At the moment it's driving with caster wheels at the front but I feel the dynamics could be improved by driving with the caster wheels at the back.


Your laser scanner will now be pointed backward (if there is one) so your laser_baselink transform needs to be updated and any other sensors will need new transforms as well. Left became right and forward is now backwards, etc.


Assuming your robot shape currently is setup so the center of rotation is at 0,0, you also need to update the shape parameters. The casters used to stick out the front, now they stick out the back. The change could cause unneeded collisions in tight spaces.


The simplest way to achieve a change in robot direction is to swap the positive and negative pins supplying current to the motors. The ROS system has no idea that anything has been changed so all cmd_vel commands and tf frames work as desired still. The only required changed is the footprint of the robot.


We are not kidding when we say, many debates have occurred around kitchen tables in Cape Breton about the best direction to drive the Cabot Trail. And while many passionate arguments have been raised, the debate rages on, and the time has come to resolve this once and for all!


1 - The eastern side of the island has amazing sunrises! So, you'll want to start your day with a coffee in hand and water views to take in the rising sun. The serenity of a sunrise in Cape Breton is inexplicable.


Even when busy, Cape Breton feels remote and off the beaten path. But if you wake up with her at sunrise, there is a sense of quiet and peace that this blog simply cannot describe. So, you must experience it for yourself.


Otherwise, you will spend the whole day, driving by stores, restaurants, artists, hikes, golf courses, ocean tours, and views you wish you could stop at, but can't, because silly you planned a day for the drive. Especially when there are so many amazing places to stay!


I'm currently doing simulation on autonomous vehicles in Anylogic. But the problem for me now is that I don't know in the road traffic library of Anylogic, if it's possible for the cars to change lane and drive on the opposite direction to avoid obstacles on the current lane(considering a road with one lane for each direction). Or is there any simulation software can simulate that scenario?enter image description here


It's not possible to do that particular maneuver with the road traffic library. You will have to use the process modeling library (PML) to avoid obstacles and change lanes to the opposite direction. This means that you will have to construct the car intelligence in order to avoid collisions.


Left-hand traffic (LHT) and right-hand traffic (RHT) are the practices, in bidirectional traffic, of keeping to the left side and to the right side of the road, respectively. They are fundamental to traffic flow, and are sometimes called the rule of the road.[1] The terms right- and left-hand drive refer to the position of the driver and the steering wheel in the vehicle and are, in automobiles, the reverse of the terms right- and left-hand traffic. The rule also includes where on the road a vehicle is to be driven, if there is room for more than one vehicle in the one direction, and the side on which the vehicle in the rear overtakes the one in the front. For example, a driver in an LHT country would typically overtake on the right of the vehicle being overtaken.


RHT is used in 165 countries and territories, mainly in the Americas, Continental Europe, most of Africa and mainland Asia (except South Asia), while 75 countries use LHT,[2] which account for about a sixth of the world's land area, a quarter of its roads, and about a third of its population.[3] In 1919, 104 of the world's territories were LHT and an equal number were RHT. Between 1919 and 1986, 34 of the LHT territories switched to RHT.[4]


Many of the countries using LHT were part of the British Empire, while others, including Indonesia, Japan, Nepal, Bhutan, Macao, Thailand, Mozambique, Suriname, United States Virgin Islands, Sweden and Iceland (which use RHT since September 1967 and late May 1968 respectively), were not. Most of the countries that were part of the French colonial empire adopted RHT.


Historical switches of traffic handedness have often been motivated by factors such as changes in political administration, a desire for uniformity within a country or with neighboring states, or availability and affordability of vehicles.


In LHT, traffic keeps left and cars usually have the steering wheel on the right (RHD: right-hand drive) and roundabouts circulate clockwise. RHT is the opposite: traffic keeps right, the driver usually sits on the left side of the car (LHD: left-hand drive), and roundabouts circulate anticlockwise.


In most countries, rail traffic follows the handedness of the roads; but many of the countries that switched road traffic from LHT to RHT did not switch their trains. Boat traffic on rivers is RHT, regardless of location. Boats are traditionally piloted from the starboard side to facilitate priority to the right.


Historically, many places kept left, while many others kept right, often within the same country. There are many myths that attempt to explain why one or the other is preferred.[5] About 90 percent of people are right-handed,[6] and many explanations reference this. Horses are traditionally mounted from the left, and led from the left, with the reins in the right hand. So people walking horses might use RHT, to keep the animals separated. Also referenced is the need for pedestrians to keep their swords in the right hand and pass on the left as in LHT, for self-defence. It has been suggested that wagon-drivers whipped their horses with their right hand, and thus sat on the left-hand side of the wagon, as in RHT. Academic Chris McManus notes that writers have stated that in the year 1300, Pope Boniface VIII directed pilgrims to keep left; however, others suggest that he directed them to keep to the right, and there is no documented evidence to back either claim.[5]


The UK introduced LHT in the East Africa Protectorate (present-day Kenya), the Protectorate of Uganda, Tanganyika (formerly part of German East Africa; present-day Tanzania), Rhodesia (present-day Zambia/Zimbabwe), Eswatini and the Cape Colony (present-day South Africa and Lesotho), as well as in British West Africa (present-day Ghana, Gambia, Sierra Leone and Nigeria);[7] former British West Africa, however, has now switched to RHT, as all its neighbours, which are former French colonies, use RHT. South Africa, formerly the Cape Colony, introduced LHT in former German South West Africa, present-day Namibia, after the end of World War I.
