Ghana drives on the right side of the road. In-game, the Google camera car is on the right side — so oncoming traffic comes from the left. This is the norm for most of Europe, the Americas, and continental Asia.
Ghana was the first sub-Saharan African country to gain independence from colonial rule in 1957, inspiring liberation movements across the continent. It is also famous for kente cloth — a hand-woven silk and cotton fabric that has become a global symbol of African culture.
