Having driven most of my life on the NJ TPK, RT 287, Garden State Pkwy, Belt Pkwy, etc. during business work days we would zip by at 75 or 80 on the left and move to the right to let others go by - it was understood. OK I feel better now for sharing.
I drove those Jersey roads for many years, too. Unfortunately, my recollections of the experience were less glowing. There was no shortage of very bad drivers in the Garden State.
