Explanation
In California, traffic lanes are commonly referred to by number, and the left or "fast" lane is called the "Number 1 Lane." The lane to the right of the Number 1 Lane is called the "Number 2 Lane," and so on. You should drive in the lane with the smoothest flow of traffic, and if you can choose among three lanes, you should choose the middle lane for the smoothest driving.
