Are Zambonis right-side drive in countries that use right-side drive cars?

Or are they all left-side drive?

I don't know the answer to your question specifically but I will say that many specialty vehicles have the seats in all sorts of unusual locations because of the task they perform and it is irrelevant where in the world they are as far as I know.
Rubbish trucks are a good example of this, often being drivable from either side (at least where I am). That allows the driver to better see their colleagues and bins on the roadside while driving in the suburbs, but switch to the regular position for driving to and from a landfill site.
If they did so, they’d also require Zamboni drivers to do their circuits in the opposite direction, counterclockwise instead of clockwise. They like to drive along the boards on the driver’s side so they can tuck up against the wall gently & see just how close they’re getting.
Just gonna say I never hear about hockey players from UK or India.
But I have heard of international figure skaters
Scotland has a fair few curling clubs, which I guess would be as likely to use them?
The UK has an ice hockey league - not sure how many natives are in the teams though. Hockey is massive in (parts of) India - but they tend to play the version without ice…
I drove Zambonis at work and of course, I always sat on the left.
Sitting there makes you able to control the left side when you operate and drive close to the walls.
It would work the opposite way but it make no sense to do it. There's a few ice machines producers in the world and I guess it would make the machinery price to raise in order to gain nothing.
I live in a right-side drive country.
The first time I ever heard of a Zamboni was when Ryan Renolds drove one over a guy in the first Deadpool movie.
I thought I remembered him also driving one in Van Wilder, but I guess I was just remembering that an ice rink was featured at one point.
Coo, loo, coo, coo, coo, coo, coo, coo! Take off to the Great White North Take off, it's a beauty way to go
huh. i live in a drivers seat on the left country and have only seen zambonis up close with the seat either on the right or in the center
I'm guessing that they'll be on whatever side Frank Zamboni decided it should be on.
I've only ever heard an Ice Resurfacer being referred to as a Zamboni in the USA. There's not a lot of ice to resurface in Australia and in the Netherlands we used to skate on the river or canal when conditions permitted, no machines there either.
The "drive under the influence" section LOL!!!
Zamboni himself would have wanted it that way.
