Why is it that when a driver makes a sharp left turn the passenger is pressed against the right side of the car?
It's a perfect example of centrifugal force, and of Newton's First Law of Motion.
As the car travels forward, all of the objects inside of it (including the driver and passengers) acquire a certain momentum; known as inertia. When the driver then acts to change the direction of the momentum (by suddenly turning left) the inertia of everyone and everything inside the car resists the change: they want to keep going forward.
The net result is that as the car turns left, everyone inside the car tries to got to the right, which is closest to the direction of the original force. The driver feels the change as well, but he or she knows what's coming, and has unconsciously braced for the turn. The passenger, however, may be surprised by either the timing or the quickness of the turn, and as a result notices the change more forcefully.

It's called g force. You are traveling at the same speed as the car is and when a turn is made you feel like you're being pushed against the right side of the car because of the sudden change of direction.

Why does a passenger slide to the side of the car when a car driver suddenly makes a sharp turn?
When a car driver suddenly makes a sharp turn, the passenger slides to the side of the car due to inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion, so when the car turns quickly, the passenger's body wants to keep moving in a straight line, causing them to slide to the side of the car.
