For a car that is accelerating to the right,
I don't understand for if the tyre is rotating clockwise, the force is acting to the right.

From the diagram, in the above web site, the direction of Ff and Fr are to the right.
For example, if u have a door in front of you, fixed to an axis on the left hand side. http://www.cofc.edu/~agrestm/RS/Door.JPG
Like the diagram shown, if you exert a force on the end , then the door will rotate anticlockwise. I could understand this phenomenon.
I couldn't imagine why the force is acting on the tyre to the right, whereas the rotation is clockwise. I suppose the direction should be anticlockwise if the force acting on the tyre is to the right.
I have been thinking too much, and need someone's else helps.
Thanks.
