why is the right lane the slow lane?

exits r usually on z write, so 2 -3 = -1

There are a few different ideas as to why this came about but now that it is here, tradition keeps it going. Two are:\n\nMany early aircraft turned better to the left due to the rotational direction of the engine propellers. This meant that landing patterns were usually designed as left-hand patterns, so the captain had to be seated on the left side in order to maintain a view of the airfield. As a consequence, convention dictates that air traffic pass left side to left side when on opposite headings. This means that if they are following an airway marked by visual means on the ground, such as landmarks or lit beacons, they have to fly on the right side of the marked path. For the captain to see the path, he would have to be sitting on the left side.\n\nor\n\nThe captain sit on the left so that the engine throttles, which are between the pilots, are at the pilot's right hand, most people being right-handed.\n\n(It should be noted that when the First Officer/co-pilot flies, they are in control of the throttles.)

b'cuz you dont want it to go soo.... quick!!almost every time you want time to stop.....it will go the more faster it can but when you want it to pass fast then it will just take a little hault at the right station!!! this is life:live it the way it is supposed to b lived!!!

My driving pet peeves are when slow drivers drive in the left lane, tapping your brakes for no reason or because you are following the car in front of you too close, not using your turn signal, going before your turn at four ways, not yielding when your suppose to.\nIf you are guilty of any of these then you do not know how to drive.

Theoretically, there isn't any significant difference in many cases in actual usage.  Way back when however, a road was often not paved, a street was a paved road, a boulevard was a large street, a lane was a connector between a road and a street, and a court would be a dead end type road or street.

Another way to see it is to consider acceleration versus constant speed. If you're going 60mph your position is increasing at that constant rate, but if you're pushing on the accelerator your speed is going 60,61,62 etc.. so your speed (which is your position vs time rate) is increasing. That is a varying rate. Doesn't have to be strictly increasing though. You could be speeding up then slowing down then back up again. Or maybe accelerating or decelerating faster, then slower. It can be any combination as long as you're not constantly going at one speed.

I think that if people followed the rules, it would be fine, even if there were speeders. There are usually four lanes of traffic on city streets and interstates. The right lane, called the driving lane, is for that, driving. The left lane, called the passing lane, is for passing slower moving cars in the right lane. Now, if pawpaw would stay in the right lane all the time, only getting out of it to get in the turning lane, the slower affic would be in one lane, the faster traffic in the other. It would be great. If you need any proof, look at the Autobahn in Germany.

a heavier car does not always accelerate slower, or go slower. \nA Dodge Neon is a very light car, yet the Dodge Hemi Ram Pickup Truck (very heavy) will accelerate much quicker.\nvehicle weight does not affect acceleration or how fast it can go. These things Are affected by the amount of horsepower and torque that the engine has available to move the vehicle.

Speed.  Specifically, someone else's driving.  I try to desensitize myself to it by letting other people drive, but it hasn't helped much.

Actually, it is illegal to drive in the left hand lane unless you are passing someone.  The left hand lane is a Passing Lane. You are more likely to get a ticket for being in the left hand lane than to get one from passing in the right.  That's how it is in Texas, however it's hardly enforced.\n\nIllinois law now reads similar to Texas law in that it now  prohibits any vehicle from using the left lane of all interstate highways for further than half a mile.

Is the speed at which it travels.

Yes, I was driving on the freeway in the winter and was doing about 25 and one car passed me (bad weather conditions) and while he was doing approximately 45 until I passed him later and he was off the road in a ditch. Under right conditions slower is faster.

If you stopped in a lane that was not a turn lane then it is your fault. You cant just stop in the middle of traffic because you cant get over. Still though, you can argue with the insurance company and perhaps convince them. Doubt it.

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?

hey skip,\nin fact they do!!!\nThere are 2 road courses in Nascar\nInfineon in CA   and Watkins Glen in NY\nthey are road courses, run in the opposite direction to what the drivers are used to, so, in theory these tracks are run with more right turns than left.\n\nHope this helps, check the links\n\nHave a good one, dude

Yeah....I wonder if it's better to drive on the left lane against traffic.   Why don't you try it and let us know.

make sure you have your board on turn it side ways and lean back hold on and your up \noh and get driver to go slow
