Explanation
On roads with two lanes traveling in the same direction, the right lane is typically designated for slower-moving traffic and for vehicles that are entering or exiting the road. The left lane is intended for passing and for faster-moving traffic. By keeping to the right lane except when passing, drivers can maintain a safe and consistent flow of traffic and avoid unnecessary lane changes, which can increase the risk of accidents.
