Explanation
If you are driving on a multilane street with two-way traffic, stay in the rightmost lane whenever possible. Use the lane to your left only when you need to pass another vehicle. Avoid weaving in and out of traffic. Do not drive alongside other vehicles - try to stay either ahead of or behind them to avoid being in their blind spots. Always maintain a safe space cushion around your vehicle. This is the safest way to drive on a multilane street with two-way traffic and can significantly reduce the risk of a serious crash.
