Suggested correction: You see him sitting on the right hand side the whole time, even when he first gets in and Larry says "new plan." He's reaching over with his left hand to steer as the car moves slowly through the streets. There's even a straight on shot around 1:03:15 and it's not a flipped shot since the license plate is normal. It could just be moving on its own momentum while in drive, or he's reached over with his foot, or both sides have pedals (like on a driver's ed car).
