shiny1 commented on SQ11 1080P Mini Camera US $7.36/AU $10.81 (Inc GST) with Free Shipping @ LightInTheBox

Sitting in the right lane is only a problem on freeways/motorways. On local roads, there is no such rule.

For a hundred extra you should have bought a proper ergonomic chair like the ergo human.
