Funny thing is cars still use right and left (atleast in US) often. Somethings driver vs passenger side. Driver vs passenger doesn't work everywhere for every car in the world like it does with boats.

What also might be funny is driver vs passenger could be seen like port and starboard in the future if we get self driving cars. There would be no designated driver side of a car, and every side is a passenger. Just like boats nowadays can port on either side because there are no steering oars needed.
