alexmish is on a distinguished road
Most likely what you see is car's reaction to road's crown. On a perfectly flat road, the steering wheel should be straight. If the road slopes to the right (most streets do to allow water run-off), you keep your steering wheel a bit to the left, and vice versa. On most highways, you keep your wheel straight in the middle lane, a bit to left in the right lane, and a bit to the right in the left lane. Perfectly normal. Believe me, I am a "human alignment machine"

If your car's alignment is off, you'd feel pulling to a side during acceleration and/or breaking.
