Wrong, left is only left when you are sitting to the left of the designated driving position as traveling forward. It ceases to be left once should those factors not all follow. So, ergo, the monitor will appear different on a LHD versus RHD car. Just look at the situation between the UK and the USA. Of course in the Southern Hemisphere (like Australia) the situation is a bit more complicated in that it is not only reversed, but also the mirror image of the reverse. So in other words, left is the opposite and backward.
