"_Opportunities_ to avoid an accident"

Driving in the Left lane constantly tends to make people mad. They want to pass you. They will try to pass you on the right, the left, the shoulder... they will cut people off to pass you.

Therefore if you drove in the right (i.e. correct and/or rightmost) lane you wouldn't have all of these "Opportunities" to avoid accidents, because you wouldn't be bombarded by infuriated idiots trying to get around you.

I can see his logic. The more of these "opportunities" you live through the better driver you will become... and if you don't live through them, hopefully you take one (or more) of those infuriated idiots off the road with you. I don't agree with the notion, but after 50 years of teaching brats to drive you would probably develop devious and senile ways of using your driving students as vehicles (pun unintended) for your revenge on society.

Drive in the correct lane... it's safer, even if you don't get the experience of avoiding accidents all the time.
