I think one lane swims clockwise, the adjacent lane swims counterclockwise. Minimizes the chance of collisions, since the swimmer just on the other side of the lane line from you is going in the same direction as you.
Well, that system does alleviate the possibility of a collision with a swimmer in the other lane...but there's still the swimmer(s) you're sharing the lane with.
