Clockwise Depends on Point of View
This is a pet peeve of mine.
Clockwise depends on your point of view.
If you tell me that you rode your bike clockwise around Lake Tahoe, starting from South Lake Tahoe, I don’t know whether you went along the east shore from North to South or vice-versa. It depends on your point of view. Are you looking down on the lake from above, or up from below.
Everyone assumes a point of view looking down. Why? I don’t know.
