Savoy Court - drive on the right please!

No big boy's camera today so you will have to make do with the smart phone (boo).
For more than 100 years, vehicles, horse drawn or mechanical, have entered and left this entrance to the Savoy Hotel on the right-hand side of the road. It is the only road in London where driving on the right is allowed.
When approaching and leaving the hotel it is easier to do so while driving on the right-hand side of the road. Savoy Court is privately owned property. It is not a public thoroughfare as it leads only to the Savoy Hotel and Savoy Theatre. Driving on the right-hand side of the road does not contravene British traffic regulations.
Historically, when being chauffeured in a horse-drawn carriage the lady or dignitary would traditionally sit behind the driver. By approaching the hotel on the right-hand side of the road, either the chauffeur or the hotel's doorman was able to open the door without walking around the car. This would allow the lady or dignitary to alight from the carriage and walk straight into the hotel.
