Dagen H (H-day), today usually called "Högertrafikomläggningen" (lit.'the right-hand traffic reorganisation'), was on 3 September 1967, the day in which Sweden switched from driving on the left-hand side of the road to the right.[2] The "H" stands for "Högertrafik", the Swedish word for right-hand traffic. It was by far the largest logistical event in Sweden's history.[3]
