However, the country's population density must also be taken into account, which is relatively high at around 316 inhabitants per km². The higher the population density of a country, the shorter the average distance traveled. In Guam, traffic drives on the right-hand side of the road, i.e. people drive in the right-hand lane and overtake on the left. Oncoming traffic comes toward you on the left side.
