Is there a "correct" side for side mount?

[heneste]

I figured they were all standard on the driver's side and then later on in the 30's you would see vehicles with the spare on the passenger side (probably for safety reasons and traffic maybe?)
Anyone know if the right hand drive versions also had driver's side as the default location for side mounted spare?

Side mounts were a rarity here. I believe that if a car were fitted with one/them it was done "after market" so would have been at the discretion of the owner.
