I had the great privilege to dive portions of the GBR on a live-aboard dive boat out of Townsville in 1999 on one of my return trips to the middle East. Back when i was getting 2 AUD for every 1 USD. Loved every minute of it and would jump to do it again. I'm waiting for 2 to 1 again ... only 0.69 to go.

The tires on the left are flat, so it is amazing how the pickup is leaning to the right! At least those right side tires are still inflated.

That's always been their problem ... the right-hand tire rims were always undersized. No matter how hard they turned left, it always drifted back right. We need to inflate the left 'slightly' to ensure steady starboard progression ... Or just blow up the fricking truck.

The left and the right both agree that its the pickup trucks that drive everything.
Iconic US mode of transport.

In Oz, our utes are still leaning too far left, even the conservative utes.

If ute refers to politicians, then perhaps they are like sheep that have been circling the same hill counter-clockwise for so long that their left leg has shrunk. Radical orthopedic surgery could cure this directional habit.
