Most people know the right lane is for slower drivers and semi trucks.  now who said we have drivers that are in tune to that.. wake up people. left lane faster traffic...right lane well u know slower.

The land does not move beneath us.  What are you talking about - the revolution of the Earth on its axis?\n\nIf that is the case, please take note, as I have seen nobody answer this frequently asked question correctly.\n\nIf you turn round quickly on the spot, you'll soon get dizzy, even though no part of your body is moving much more than a few miles per hour.\n\nIf you drive around a traffic island at 60 mph, you will throw your passengers all over the place.\n\nIf you drive around the city loop at 60 mph, you will hardly notice any turning forces.\n\nSo, speed is not the critical factor in how turning affects you.  What affects you is the rate at which you are changing direction. \n\nWith the Earth taking 24 hours to turn once, at any point in time you are not changing direction hardly at all, and from minute to minute you are travelling in a straighter line than a draughtsperson could draw.  \n\nTravelling in a straight line at constant speed has no effect on you at all, even if it is 1 million mph.

HUGEEEE can of worms here.\n\nPeople on cell phones\n\npeople that don't use signals\n\npeople that think the merge sign at the end of a ramp applies only to the interstate traffic moving at 70 mph and not their 45 mph ^%$\n\npeople that refuse to let you back over when you politly move over to make merging easier for them\n\npeople that think the 20 ft space between a big truck and the lead car was meant for them although they know it takes OVER 100 yards for the big truck to stop\n\npeople that read while driving\n\npeople that are driving 70 mph in a 70 mph zone, see a set of blue lights, and slow to 55 mph, cuz they might get a ticket\n\npeople that refuse to move over a lane, when someone is changing a flat on the shoulder\n\npeople who tailgate, cut off, play chicken, with vehicles that have burnt orange diamond displayed on them ( class 1 explosives)\n\npeople who think, the speed limit is fast enough, so they stay in the left lane...shutting down faster traffic for miles, rather than passing the clown beside them\n\npeople who think the left lane is their personal driving space...meant only for them\n\nI drive for a living...can ya tell?

When u use the high beams when a care is approaching u are supposed to dim them so u do not blind the driver that is coming your way! Some people just do not know the rules of the road i guess.

Oh man let me tell you.....where YOU live, may be a certain amount of ethnic originated people....but, where I live?.....mostly caucasion, as I am, and they can't drive either....I live in the country....work one night a week...on a deserted country road, two lane, people will ride with their brights on, click them off, only, when they have reached my vehicle, and have blinded the hell out of me....NO ONE HERE where I live in the bible belt America, know how to turn their turn signal light on BEFORE they are gonna turn, they slam their brakes and then turn the turn signal on, IF they turn it on at all!!!!!! I live in White America, Southern region America, and they DO NOT KNOW HOW TO F%^$# DRIVE, to be at the very least!!!! Courteous to the other driver!!!  Everyone is in such a big rush to get wherever they need to go, with no regard to the other people on the road....I AM PREJIDUCE, AGAINST "STUPID" people, I don't care what they are, if they are a holes, they are a holes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Friendly reminder also that your bright lights are blinding me.  Hasn't it become a traffic law in some states that if you aren't traveling at the speed limit you should move over allowing others doing the speed limit to pass?

I wholeheartedly agree with the two answers; one about not using turn signals - dangerous,\nand one about constantly using cell phones - also dangerous\nwhen driving.\nBut I must say that what bothers me "the most" is drivers who drive too fast, too close to you, and then cut you off by "passing on the right".  This is extremely dangerous and most annoying.  It is my observation that they are often ALSO talking on a cell phone, and they definately never use their turn signals!\nWe drive an RV Van which is heavy and does not "stop on a dime", because of such law breaking, inconsiderate drivers we have had many "close calls".  \nI wish we could just ZAP those offenders off the roadways!\n\nSo for anyone reading this who does any of these things, please STOP and THINK, before YOU cause an "avoidable tragic accident", and perhaps death to someone and/or YOURSELF.\nIn the meantime I pray a lot.\nGod Bless!

Left side to right side? If you mean from the inside lane of the track to the outside lane, that's exactly why. Lane one is always the lane that's closest to the infield.\n\nIf you mean as you're watching from the stands, that's not true. I've seen races run from "right to left". Also if you're sitting in the opposite stands.

If people don't see the red light, they plow right through the intersection.\n\nOn a broader view, they don't learn to read until its too late.

in most places, pedestrians have the right away so they think you have to stop for them.  This is the wrong thought.\n\nI just speed up....that teaches them to look next time.  Unless of course, I hit them.

Just a quirk of history.  As to safety, there's really no difference.  In places where folks drive on "the other side," the driver is also "on the other side."  This means that visibility remains the same.

Perhaps they can't tell which direction the emergency vehicle is comming from? It is best to stop than to be a moving variable. \n\nI always pull to the right to make way for the emergency vehicles, and I will also use the left lane to make more room for police vehicles on the shoulder while they are ticketing someone. I do this also for cars on the shoulder who have hazzard lights on.\n\nI also will flash my brights to alert semi tractor trucks that their haul clears my front bumper if they are signaling to pass. and flash again if they are trying to merge into traffic. this really helps them take the guess work out of clearing the bumper.

As long as people's interest in speed and danger persists. Keep in mind people watched chariot races during the Roman empire and still we shell out big bucks to watch cars make left hand turns.

Everybody is somewhat near to my answer but a truth behind is... Because of Fog and bad weather the only color Red is most aggressive to travel fast to the sight. You can see the red light from more far away when the weather is not good or there is somewhat fog, raining or sandstorm. The Green comes after that and is for Get Ahead... I think so...

OMG look at this stupid a*s driver. He need to drive in his correct lane.  That's why the made multiply lanes. Choose one and stay in it.

Because they always spend the money on roads that don't really need repaving and cause traffic jams and accidents.  I was in an accident due to a crappy job of road workers giving ample warning that traffic on an interstate was about to come to a halt at the bottom of the hill.
