 In 2011, Yangon had about 300,000 registered motor vehicles in addition to an unknown number of unregistered ones.Since 1970, cars have been driven on the right side of the road in Burma, as part of a military decree.However, as the government has not required left hand drive (LHD) cars to accompany the right side road rules, many cars on the road are still right hand drive (RHD) made for driving on the left side.
