The police tend to number them with lane 1 being closest to the footway 
(i.e. the left lane in the UK, the right lane over much of the rest of the 
world).  Although there could be something to be said for making it 
region-agnostic so that satnavs don't have to know what side of the road 
you drive in a specific region.
