It may also be a realization that many drivers hog the left lane and will not yield to traffic overtaking them. In many states, it's illegal to stay left and not yield to traffic overtaking you. Also, in many states, it's perfectly legal to pass on the right in certain circumstances. Connecticut has such a law.
