I also muted the music.

I was surprised to see that the cars had the steering wheel on the right side. Was that typical of cars in that era?

It wasn’t standardized yet. Cars were a very new thing and there were a lot of start up car companies all doing their own thing.

LH drive didn’t become standardized until the Model T’s popularity grew. Some US manufacturers made RH drive cars into the ‘20s.
