I've seen Americans shout this in countries that drive on the left side of the road. Everyone looked embarrassed for them.

Oh for sure for sure. Definitely reverse when traveling in countries that ~~get it wrong~~ want to remain a UK colony.

Sadly since COVID I've not been able to do much international traveling. But I do still get routed through Chicago O'Hare, which adds insult to injury

(Also I'm just joking about that colonies jab. The only "correct" way is the way the community at large has decided in a particular area.)
