Unfortunately this chart is misleading. There are two separate instances of roadway, these should be combined. This is a common issue with pie charts, data can be manipulated by splitting series in arbitrary ways. Simply relabeling the series “left lane” and “right lane” wouldn’t fix the problem because it’s an arbitrary distinction, both lanes are “road” in every way that matters (color, presumably). Combine the two roadway series, move the white line slice to one side or the other.
While we are at it. Maybe it should be ordered from big to small, as this way it is easier to compare each part. Another way of displaying the buckets would be in a histogram, this will bring more structure and more clarity to the size comparisons between each bucket.

Eastbound and westbound lane. Problem solved.

Was going to comment this, albeit less elaborate.
Also, if lines don’t make difference because they are both road, I hope you have very fast reflexes when you drive
takes a lot of skill to drive against this slew of oncoming traffic
It’s a picture.
I’m just joking, friend.
