On a typical robot with a motor on the left and a motor on the right side, to go forward one motor will be going clockwise, the other motor counter-clockwise. It's entirely typical of DC brushed motors to have a difference in performance in each direction, so it's entirely typical that such a robot will not run in a straight line. So having motor encoders and a PID controller is __exactly__ how one fixes this problem.
