Why does it seem that all freestyle swimmers breath to the right? I breath to the left but...yeah..

I think most people breathe more naturally to the right because when you train in a crowded lane swimming "in circles" staying to the right, that is where the lane line is, which gets you more air than breathing towards the waves created by the other swimmers in the lane.
At least that is my experience.
Maybe someone from England can tell if they swim to the left and have a left side preference?
