Bleed *longest runs* first.
1) passenger rear
2) driver rear
3) passenger front
4) driver front.

Some vehicles have identical braking systems for RHD and LHD cars,
differing only upstream of the proportioning valve. This allows the
manufacturer inexpensive compatibility with mounting the master cylinder on
either side of the car. If that's the case, then the bleed order is the
same for either drive, usually starting with the right-rear.
