The reflection is correct. Mirror reflections
don't reverse the image, they reflect it as it is. Stand in front of a mirror with something in your right hand and then compare it to the mirror image you see below.
As you can see from the below image MacGyver has the gas tin in his right hand which is away from the road. In the reflection the tin is still in the hand furthest from the road.. which is still his right hand.
You'll also note that we can just make out the white of his ski pass hanging from the pocket of his sweater on the opposite side from the gas tin. We can see from the picture below the pass is on his left hand side. This means in the reflection the gas tin in still in his right hand as it's opposite from the ski pass (hanging on his left)
