Nice to look at is subjective. I find them ugly, but ofcourse that is rooted in knowing that they’re basically dead land that just looks green. Just like tree plantations aren’t as pretty as a forest. What I find prettier is chaotic growth that is mostly left to it’s own.
Smell, again subjective, I find the varried smell much more pleasant. But the smell is always superceded by the nearby dairy farm anyways in my case, as it is for my neighbours with their grass yards
“Pleasant to use” you mean easy for kids to play on? Can’t argue with that if you have kids. I don’t and I enjoy watching my chaotic yard used more by birds and insects. , knowing that there’s at least more life in there.
Countries where you have to drive as much to the right as possible also have laws stating it’s illegal to overtake on the right. Overtaking on the right has the same fine as jogging the middle lane if there’s space on the right.
I guess this mostly indicates to always check the actual road laws of the regions you’re driving in. But generally in Europe hogging the middle lane indicates you’re a danger on the road who should not be allowed to drive a car.
