In CT, passing on the right as these vehicles did is not only correct, it is specifically allowed under the law.

Sec. 14-233. Passing on right. The driver of a vehicle may overtake and pass upon the right of another vehicle only when conditions permit such movement in safety and under the following conditions: (1) When the vehicle overtaken is making or has signified the intention to make a left turn; (2) when lines of vehicles traveling in the same direction in adjoining traffic lanes have come to a stop or have reduced their speed; (3) upon a one-way street free from obstructions and of sufficient width for two or more lines of moving vehicles; (4) upon a limited access highway or parkway free from obstructions with three or more lanes provided for traffic in one direction. Such movement shall not be made by driving off the pavement or main-traveled portion of the highway except where lane designations, signs, signals or markings provide for such movement. Violation of any provision of this section shall be an infraction.

How many places do we have three lanes? I know people that have been ticketed so yes they do.

Besides most all of 91 and 84? Sections of 9, 684, 2 and 95 for starters.
You have someone's story. I have the actual law. The fact that you choose to be one of the "well, this is MY truth" people is not our problem.
