At 0600 local time (1700GMT) sirens sounded and drivers were told to move from the right side to the left.

Bus drivers have also protested that their doors will now open on the wrong side, in the middle of the road.

It hopes that Samoan expatriates in Australia and New Zealand will now ship used, more affordable vehicles back to their homeland.

Switching sides just to get cheaper imports of junk cars from somewhere else but the US. That's nothing but a stupid idea.
