In Spain, directions are often given with 'izquierda' and 'derecha' very clearly. Pedestrians are expected to know these terms. In Mexico, 'doblar' is more common than 'girar' for driving directions. Argentines use 'izquierda' in both navigation and political contexts, often with high intensity. Directions often include landmarks, but 'a la izquierda' remains the standard directional term.
