Exclamation LEFT or RIGHT - DRIVER or PASSENGER

I have conflicting information
I ( think ) I read in the official Ford service manual that when pertaining to vehicles n this manual you look facing front of vehicle and drivers side is on your right , and passenger side is on left
For some unknown reason I may have brake parts labeled right on the passenger side of my truck Which is correct ?
People say key swings from the left on bumpsides...........

LEFT & RIGHT ARE ALWAYS WHEN SITTING IN THE DRIVERS SEAT!

You cant say "driver's side" because some cars & trucks are right hand drive (see above).
We here have left hand drive but even then some right hands get imported.
And dont forget the mail trucks that are also right hand drive.
