Left-turn quip around the Indianapolis Motor Speedway

A long-standing local quip says Indianapolis is the place where drivers are praised for turning left, referencing the Indianapolis 500 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The Speedway hosts the Indianapolis 500 annually and is the city landmark most closely associated with that race. The joke is a locally repeated quip rather than a formal slogan and is tied to the Speedway's prominence in the city.
