To be fair, it's the author of that web site who failed English, not NY law makers.From @SANZC02 post:
Leave it to NY to have a driving regulation that reads like this:
"Drivers can use the left lane in New York when passing and overtaking another vehicle unless traffic conditions require you to be in the left lane (e.g., construction, traffic congestion, exits, or three or more lanes are marked for travel)."
I'm not an English major but doesn't this read that an example of when you couldn't use the left lane to pass would be traffic congestion or when there are three or more lanes marked for traffic? Seems poorly worded to me...
Apologies for thread tangent... no comment on the new OTA update.
The actual law is: https://www.nysenate.gov/legislation/laws/VAT/1120 The way I read this, it's covering crossing into oncoming traffic, and that when there are more than one lane in the same direction there is no real "keep right except to pass law" in NY.
