the reasoning actually makes a fair amount of sense

Samoa is about to become what's believed to be the first nation since the
1970s to order its drivers to switch from one side of the road to the other.
That's spawned an islandwide case of road rage. Opponents have organized two of
the biggest protests in Samoan history, and a new activist group -- People
Against Switching Sides, or PASS -- has geared up to fight the plan.
