If they are paying a toll to a tollboth on the right hand side, it must be in a country that drives on the left. The position of the parked cars is consistent.

Or.... It's a photoshop.

Japan or Aussie, also. Then again, if your driving that tank, you can drive on any damn side you want.

Just have to ask...
That's a Challenger 2, british army's main battle tank.
By the way, you can clearly recognize the specific british camouflage, the bad weather, the uniform of the girl at the pollstation an the plates of the car on the right.
Weight : 62tons

Maybe to you, Pi. We foreigners aren't familiar with those things.

That's why I told you just to ask, and actually I only visited England twice... I call it professional deformation, always checking all the little details.

How many axles does that count as? And shouldn't they go through the weigh station instead?
