I'm not sure what exactly the signs on the entrance ramps say in Vermont,
but having grown up and learned to drive there I know that I was taught
that you were supposed to stay in the right lane unless you were passing
someone. I'm sure it was the law, because I remember when I first heard
that it was legal to pass on the right in MA, and I thought that was neat,
as passing on the right was (and probably is still) illegal in VT.
