Back in the 50's, stovebolt drivers in the world were versatile.
They could steer, shift gears, roll down window, scratch head, carry on a conversation and operate a cigarette lighter whether they drive on the left or the right hand side of the road.
The location of the cigarette lighter didn't matter as long as you could reach it with a free hand.
If your lady was with you, she could light the cigarette for you, but you had to remember to first roll up the window to stop the wind.
The fine hot tobacco ashes, that manage to stick to the end of a cigarette lighter, could fall, burn a hole and ruin a pretty dress.
Definitely not cool on a date.
It would be interesting see how today's young generation "texters" would cope driving a stovebolt (not loaning my truck to find out).
The first thing they would want to know is, what's a cigarette lighter?
