Dug these LEFT/RIGHT signs out of a drawer. I made these in high school. They're transparent plastic, so I could put them in my car windshield, in the bottom left and right corners. (I am not very good at telling "left" from "right" when someone shouts driving directions at me.)

I used to make the passenger give directions as "turn you" or "turn me" (as in, turn my direction or your direction) or knock on their window to indicate a right turn because I have the same problem!

I made them an ambigram because it was funny. No, it's not the world's best ambigram. I don't use them any more because I found a left-right mnemonic that works. ("Reading left to right" -- I can remember which way text goes.)
