I always thought it was quite precise in describing the sides of the car.

Near side (ie nearest to the kerb) is always the passenger side with cars made for that particular current market. Sweden is one anomaly I can think of, though. A former right hand drive country, but since their change came about in the 60s, it would still be safe to use nearside and offside, particularly for modern cars.

Also i believe Myanmar is the only exception to this. Right hand drive, AND driving on the right.
