We can look back in history for reasons people move on the right or left of the road. Some people say that in Europe hundreds of years ago, people rode their horses on the left. This way , their sword was between them and anyone who was coming toward them in the opposite direction. They were ready to pull out their and fight to defend themselves with their right arm. But their is evidence that people used the right side, too. In 1300, some say the Pope Boniface ordered pilgrims on the way to St.Peter's Basilica to stay to the right when they crossed a nearby bridge.
Another idea is that in the 1700s,people in France and in the United States started to use wagons with several pairs of horses and to drive on the right side of the road. It was easier for the drivers to sit on the left and control the horses with a whip in the right hand, and it was safer if other vehicles passed on the left so the drivers could see the distance between vehicles. Some people say that in England, People always drove on the left, and in France, People always drove on the right.
