From the picture it seems as though he is riding on the right side of the road - don't they drive on the left side in GB?

They do indeed, as in Japan, though in Germany they drive on the righthand side like Americans [mostly!] do. But the pic of that particular '67 Lambo Miura is of Kirk Stevenson's during *Italian Car Day* in Atlanta last year.

Those folks put on quite a showing; even had a couple of Ducati and Guzzi motorbikes show up last year.

That's Kirk's Miura, which was voted best Lamborghini at the event, on the right, next to the red ragtop.

would show a lower speed to the radar its than actual speed

Yes, but the article says the road is a "dual carriageway" which is Brit for a limited access freeway. The fast lane is the right hand lane.
