Its a fairly good question. They wont collide as they are in separate orbits, which are many millions of km apart - orbits within orbits. The planets when drawn to scale are also tiny when compared with these orbits and distances. Having said that, their gravitational fields do indeed effect each other, distorting each others orbits.

They travel on an imaginary axis around the Sun. The Sun's gravitational pull keeps the planets from drifting away.

Planets do not collide into one another because?

Every planet has different size and is placed at different distance from the sun. The gravitational pull between the sun and the planet depends upon the distance and size of the planet and hence affects the speed of rotation and revolution of the planet around its own axes as well as around the sun. This specific distance and speed of revolution and rotation locks the planet in its orbit having specific radius which is unique for every planet. This is the reason they have separate path and speed to rotate around its own axes as well as around the sun. , hence they do not collide with each other.
