I believe it was Denny Graham who posted a video not to long ago and in it the video it mentioned exiting on the passenger side for safety...... the video was a GM produced and showed a 1950 car.
My grandfather, 1887-1971, use to tell us his old trucks were that way so grandma wouldn't get her dress dirty. She could step out of the truck onto the BOARDwalk. Plus all the other reasons mentioned!

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
