With approximately 90% of the world’s
population being right-handed, being
a leftie is considered very rare.
In honor of International Lefthanders Day
on August 13, here are four advantages
left-handed people have.

people were found to be better drivers
than those who are right-handed.
This is believed to be because cars are designed
for right-handed drivers, meaning left-handed
drivers must pay more attention to detail.
2. While this isn’t a proven fact, left-handed people
may have a better chance of becoming president.
Out of the past 15 presidents, seven have
been non-righties, meaning their may
be some advantage to being a leftie.

for right-handed people to adjust when
competing against left-handed people.

advantage when it comes to certain sports.

4. Researchers believe that left-handed people
are wired in a way that makes them able to recover

of staying alert can be spread out on both sides,
while in right-handers, it’s only on the right side.
