Here is the relevant law for NY:

http://assembly.state.ny.us/leg/?cl=128&a=49

While it's clear about not driving on the left side of a road (i.e. in
the wrong lane), and it does indicate that one should pass on the left
where possible (although it also allows for passing on the right), it
does not say "stay right except to pass". There's nothing in the NY law
that says you can't park your ass in the left lane of a divided highway
and do 55 mph till the cows come home.
