Glad you enjoyed it. And that dancer, well she can sing a bit too. Check out Change, absolutely beautiful.

And if you want to go down that rabbit hole, check out her work with Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

Yeah, scooters like mopeds, but also larger ones. Anything twist and go basically, with no foot controls.

Well I was told you make hand signals with either hand. So which side of the road you're on is irrelevant.

The front brake should be on the right. It's the more important one because you can actually stop with it rather than just skidding. Sure, excessive force will put you over the handlebars, but that's why you need your dominant (most people are right handed) hand to get the fine control required.

And look at motor scooters. Not bikes, automatic scooters with no foot controls and only levers. The front brake is always on the right wherever they are in the world. Why should it be different for bicycles?
