What is traffic lane?

This is highly dependent on what kind of roadway you are on, and where you are driving. On two-lane highways in the US, the oncoming traffic lane is used for passing. Most states allow this type of passing outside of urban areas where it is not specifically prohibited. On three-lane highways in the US (not common anymore), the center lane is used for passing but is subject to restrictions (yield to uphill traffic, etc.). On four lane highways which are not freeways, most states allow passing only in the left lane in your direction. On freeways with a center divider and multiple lanes in your direction, most states recommend passing in the left lane but permit it in any lane. Some states do not allow passing on the right. A center lane which is a two-way left turn lane may never be used for passing in nearly all states. A shoulder lane may be used to pass a stopped vehicle when it is safe to do so in most states. There are lots of exceptions to the Uniform Vehicle Code.

When turning right on a four lane unmarked road I know you are supposed to go to the curb at first but which lane should you end up in?

From the rightmost lane a right turn should end in the rightmost lane. If more than one lane permits a right turn then it should end in the corresponding lane from the right. Just imagine as if the turn was on a curved road linking the two roads (this also applies for left turns) with a one to one lane correspondence between the turning lanes of the road you are on and the ending lanes in the road you end up in, assuming that there is moving traffic in all of the turn lanes that you must not collide with during the turn.

What does the song fast by Jason Aldean mean?

Jason sings about losing the way of life he once knew and losing his farm. He sings "Aren't those four lanes fast." It could be that he is talking about an interstate being paved through his farm/town and losing the way of life that he once knew and loved. The four lanes could also symbolize the four years of highschool or college and growing up and moving on in life. A bitter sweet time. It could also be a song for growing up in general and moving on.

What is an example of a effect?

A road with a lot of traffic on such as a motorway and that has four lanes has two lanes closed and thus the traffic piles up as there are four lanes of traffic trying to fit through two lanes. Like pouring water out of a bottle. When you tip it upside down the water sloshes over to the neck of the bottle but piles up and takes time to drain from the bottle rather than a bucket where the water is drained instantaneously.

When may you drive in the left lane of a road with four or more lanes with two-way traffic?

Depends on what state your in. In some states the far left lane is used primarily for Emergency Vehicles and a passing lane. In California you can travel in that lane as long as you move to the right if an Emergency Vehicle comes up behind you. According to the Florida handbook, "if the road has 4 or more lanes with two-way traffic, drive in the right lanes except when overtaking or passing" or if the exit you need to take is shortly on the left. Overtaking and/or passing.
