FROM THE LEFT LANE (Article 11) – UNDERSTAND WHY KEEPING RIGHT REDUCES TRAFFIC CONGESTION

Here is another thought experiment to help you see why keeping right will reduce traffic congestion.

Imagine there is a slow green car passing an even slower blue car. A red car is behind the green car and wants to go faster. The red car can go faster when one of two things happens: either the green car moves into the right lane or the red car moves into the right lane. As it turns out the green car can move into the right lane sooner than the red car can. In the animation below there are two cases. In the first case the green car stays in the left lane and the red car has to move to the right lane. In the second case the green car moves to the right lane as soon as it is safe to do so, allowing the red car to resume his normal speed sooner. This results in the red car getting to his destination sooner, spending less time on the highway. Please reread the section on how milliseconds add up to gridlock.
