VTL § 1120(b).(b) In addition, upon all roadways, any vehicle proceeding at less than the normal speed of traffic at the time and place and under the conditions then existing shall be driven in the right-hand lane then available for traffic, or as close as practicable to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway, except when overtaking and passing another vehicle proceeding in the same direction or when preparing for a left turn at an intersection or into a private road or driveway. Please note the bold and underlined passage. The provision for traveling in the left lane is that the driver be proceeding at the "normal speed of traffic". The left lane is not for the sole purpose of passing, which it is in most other states. |
