Why is the gas tank on the right in some cars and on the left in others?
⠀
One of the reasons is cultural and historical. For example, in almost all European countries there is right-hand traffic, and in old cities a gas station is a few gas stations that are located almost on the sidewalk. Accordingly, you can get to them only if you drive up from the right side. It is also logical that the gas tank should be on the right side.
⠀
In Japan, the situation is the opposite - left-hand traffic and the corresponding location of the gas tank. Everything seems to be correct, but there are also contradictions. A prime example of this is the United States. There is right-hand traffic here, but there are also many cars with the gas tank located on the left.
⠀
One of the most common versions says that the hatch should be located on the opposite side from the driver. This is necessary in order to be able to drive as close as possible to the gas station, while being able to normally open the doors and get out of the car. Again, there are nuances.

This is Thilafushi island built entirely from waste. 🚮 It is located near the capital of the Maldives - the city of Male. Once there was an untouched lagoon, but in the 90s they decided to arrange a garbage dump in its place.
