Why did the disc brake on the front driver's side wear out a lot faster than the disc brake on the front passenger's side?

Answer

sounds like you have a stuck brake caliper on teh dirvers side.

Answer

You may have a bad rotor on that side. A warped rotor would cause the disc brakes to wear out quicker. A new rotor is usually cheaper than getting one turned; usually between $20 to $40.

Answer

Your caliper is sticking pushing the brake pad out. Look to see if brake hose is twisted. Had samething drove me nuts changing things saw the hose took the twist out. Have not had the same problem since, been 8 months. Bill
