Agree in advance with your travel mates that you will "drive out loud" each time you make a turn, go through a roundabout, etc. If each time the direction of your vehicle changes you have a brief conference with the others in the car to verify that you are on the correct side of the road, it will help ease your mind. I feel like every time I turn I need this check-in as it never really becomes natural. I would also consider avoiding the use of the car in cities - land, transfer to the city, spend the day or two there, transfer back to the airport and then get the car and head out to the countryside. A motorway or a country road are a lot less stressful than city driving.
