Op het vasteland van Europa rijden we normaal rechts van de weg. Als we op dezelfde weg willen teruggaan, lijkt het mij dat we eerder "linksomkeer" maken :-)
Vanwaar zou die uitdrukking "rechtsomkeer" komen?

Waarschijnlijk dateert die uitdrukking nog van vóór Napoleon, toen de paarden en koetsiers nog links reden.

Ik las ergens, dat die uitdrukking oorspronkelijk "rechtsom, keert", een militair bevel zou geweest zijn. De komma, de spatie en de eind-t zouden er vanaf gevallen zijn....
Ik twijfelde ook even, of daar geen t meer moet aan staan. Die was er in mijn jonge tijd misschien nog wel, en kan ook vervallen zijn, samen met de t achter aan de gebiedende wijs meervoud.
Links of rechts hangt overigens van het standpunt uit. Van op of onder de grond gezien draaien we nu rechtsom, als we bij vergissing een straat ingereden zijn....
