This Lane is my Lane. This Lane's not your lane. While I am driving, stay in your own lane. (think This Land is Your Land...) One car can fit into one space at any given time. When two vehicles try to inhabit the same space the end result is usually not pretty. This is called an accident. Vehicles and more important to note people can become greatly damaged in an accident so we must try to avoid these at all times. How can we do this? It is simple, stay in your own lane.
The lines running down the street are provided so that each vehicle knows the appropriate lane in which to drive. Vehicles that tend to drive fast are usually in the left, average drivers in the center and slow drivers on the right. This of course is the ultimate driving scenario and not always an accurate account of the cars on the road which is why it is extremely important for correct lane procedure.
Do not drive on the line. This technique does not allow the vehicle in the lane next to you adequate space in
which to drive. Do not lean towards the lane in which you intend to change with out properly signaling your intent. Other vehicles may not understand your lean as a lane change. This is how accidents occur. Do not look down to change the cd player as for some reason the angle of your arm on the radio is equal to the angle of your vehicle as you try to change the dial. Do not decide at the last minute you no longer wish to turn and then awkwardly end up in two lanes blocking traffic. Do not text, talk without a hands-free device or do any other non driving related task while driving because not only do you wind up weaving in and out of your lane but you tend to speed up or slow down inappropriately causing great stress and annoyance to those around you.
This Lane is my Lane. This Lane's not your lane. While I am driving, stay in your own lane. We'll reach our final destination if we could drive there without frustration. Stay in your own lane is what I'm saying. There's lanes enough for you and me.
