Which side to stand?

Stand on the left on London's subway escalators, I was told. But in Japan, I found people standing on the left at times and on the right at other times. Which was the correct side for standers?

I found that the Japanese stand on the same side as those standing ahead of them. And one can choose whichever side to stand on if there's no one ahead.

Isn't that efficiency at maximum?
