Default Side exit exhausts

Anyone know the legislation on these?
From what I can gather, they must be on drivers side..
Have googled, but can't find anything official.

I had a side exit Scorpion years ago on a Reno 5 GTT and it came out of passenger side.

I dont think there is any. Kit cars have them on left, right or both depending on the engine used.

e.g....Mine is drivers side as its a YB, Zetec/CVH powered cars that there are tonnes of are the passenger side.
