> Why doesn't society tell people "keep to the right lane" or "signal your turns"?

It's funny, because I live in California, and I find myself wanting to yell these things a people all the time.



"Keep Right Except to Pass" is a pretty common sign.

And in at least some states you can be ticketed for improper lane use and failure to signal.


It is, in fact, the law through most of the USA. But have you ever heard of anyone getting a ticket for it?


Indeed. I hail from Oregon, where it is the law. Freeway driving, even when busy, is much more pleasant there.
