I drive in the states all the time. It's very easy to get used to, your natural instincts will make you want to be on the centreline of the road you're on. So far I've driven through 48 of the states (all except Rhode Island and Alaska); all in a lincoln town car.
Weirdest thing I've seen is a roundabout in Ghettysburg Pennsylvania - most drivers were perplexed, I sailed through it having had experience here. You can turn right on a red except when there's a sign saying to the effect of "No turn on stop signal" or "no turn on red signal". On the whole it's a great country to drive through, the roads are so much better than here and the system seems to work well. You can speed, regularly I've passed cops lying in the median whilst I was doing 85-90 on a 75mph interstate. Thing is though, should you tail gate or undertake a vehicle, they'll pull you over no matter what speed you're doing. Like I said it's a great country to drive through, however watch out when it snows. Snow turns to slush and then to ice real quick if it's not dusted down quickly by plows etc. Try driving through Wyoming and Montana in December like I did last year. All I'll say about it is I'm glad it wasn't my car.
