ErIn_RuLeS Sep 14, 2005	i got confused but good one and YAY!!!! i am the first commenter!!
smarty_blondy Sep 14, 2005	Indeed, most European counties have their cars driving on the right. We in Romania have them on the right as well. Very good teaser and can't wait to see more from you.
xsagirl Sep 14, 2005	Great teaser. I didn't pay attention to the title and therefor did not get it right. But once I saw the answer, I thougth DUH! Of course... Coming from South Africa (where we drive on the left) and have visited Europe a few times, I should have known!
joeyleahs2 Sep 14, 2005	dutchymonster im sorry to say this , but who would have guessed THAT!!!!! that was SSSSSOOOOO!!!!! HARD
NTaliesen Sep 16, 2005	Loved it thanks
AZTTT Sep 16, 2005	good one DM, I shoulda guessed it too, especially with the title Keep up the good work!
pretty_ponyz Sep 16, 2005	dutchymonster im sorry to say this , but who would have guessed THAT!!!!! that was SSSSSOOOOO!!!!! HARD
Crazycriely Sep 17, 2005	ATTENTION!: technically both sides are driven on at the same time. but yeah i get what u mean
schatzy228 Sep 19, 2005	the title should have given it to me, but alas you stumped me nice job
Go_Illini Sep 26, 2005	Well done!!--It did drive me crazy, by the way.
signmeup74 Oct 06, 2005	DOH!! The title should've given it away, but alas, I was thinking Time Zones. tsk tsk. Good one!!
rose_rox Nov 07, 2005	I read the title and knew the answer midway into the sentence. original and fun
zonahobo Nov 14, 2005	Good one Dutchy .. very important for you to know these things! Have you every driven where they drive on the right side? (Do the race cars go counter-clockwise? That would be interesting.)
redraptor50 Nov 18, 2005	Well done Dutchey......I had to read it a couple of times but got it keep these coming
redraptor50 Nov 18, 2005	I mean Dutchy..sorry
tamjp Feb 05, 2007	Note to self--ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK THE TITLE!
J-Mac Jun 05, 2008	Very tough one. No, I did not get it either. Spent a lot of time, however, looking at the letters, as I imagine most here did! Yes, the title WAS a big clue, but it usually is not so I don't often pay that much attention to the titles. Good teaser! Thanks! Jim
Ozetwo Jun 05, 2008	It could also be France for another reason. All those countries in Group A have no land borders with other countries.
(user deleted) Jun 05, 2008	Actually.....France was the only one that wasn't an island in Group A! So that was an equally valid answer....good teasers only have one answer!! Sorry!
monkey289 Jun 05, 2008	I got it by France not being an island in itself haha
elentir Jun 05, 2008	Even though Hong Kong isn't a country but part of China now, it doesn't fit with the other description of being an island either. It is connected to mainland China.
doehead Jun 05, 2008	Title gave it away!!!
etwizard Jun 05, 2008	to easy
avomaria Jun 05, 2008	Shoulda looked at title as I, too, went for the "surrounded by water" theory.
bradon182001 Jun 05, 2008	I have to agree with J-Mac. From now on I will also read the titles a little better. Good one Dutchy, thanks for posting.
phyllisa Jun 05, 2008	I thought Group 2 had words in the names, and said Japan because it had "pan" in it!!!!!
nelsonamy16 Jun 05, 2008	Actually, I don't know about you but people in the United States drive on the left hand side.Pay attention to the cars and you will see.
scallio Jun 05, 2008	Having been to several of these countries, I got the answer right away. Great teaser!
avonma Jun 05, 2008	Good teaser! Apparently there actually were TWO answers! I didn't get either one.
myhalcyondaze Jun 05, 2008	@nelsonamy16 In the US, we do drive on the right side of the road. You may be thinking of how we drive on the left side of the VEHICLE.
brain23 Jun 05, 2008	Did you notice that all the countries in Group A were in alphabetical order? I thought it was that it was Australia, then the C country, and then the E and G, but France didn't work out so it belonged in group B!
snowmonster Jun 05, 2008	Excellent Mr.Monster! I'd like to see more like this . . . .possible? You did a great job - very enjoyable!
auntiesis Jun 05, 2008	I don't drive so I never would have thought of the correct answer.
Madelulabelle Jun 09, 2008	I also got the island answer, which is fairly understandable as I don't drive yet.
Pravir Jun 09, 2011	The name of the teaser gave away the answer. Don't make that mistake in the future...
Kronos Jun 09, 2011	I didn't look at the title and I still got it right. All the countries that should have been in group A are all islands or group of islands. The countries in group B are not.
