Here is what I found in Chapter 6 of
The Texas Driver's Handbook, page

KEEP TO THE RIGHT

NEVER drive on the left half of the
road in the following instances:

1. When pavement markings prohibit
driving on the left (a "No Passing
Zone").

2. When there are two or more traffic
lanes in one direction. (In other words,
don't "drive" in the left lane/s...my words)



Give up on it, JJ. I saw that section too, but it refers to driving on the
opposite side of the highway (note the "left half of the road" above), not
driving in the left lane of a multiple-lane highway (in the left lane of
multiple-lane highway, you wouldn't be on the left half of the overall
road). There simply doesn't appear to be a "left lane only for passing" law
in Texas.

Suggest you read 545.051 of the law in my previous post.
