If you need to park your vehicle beside a US highway, you should:
No. If the vehicle you are passing is going at the correct speed, why should you need to overtake. When overtaking a vehicle you should ensure there is enough clear road ahead of you to pass the vehicle without over speeding. If this is not the case you should not attempt an overtaking manoeuvre.
The first thing you should do if your vehicle breaks down on the highway is pull it over to the side break down lane and out of highway lane traffic. If your vehicle needs to be moved from the lane you'll need to put it in neutral and push it out of the highway lanes but be sure that your hazard lights are on and someone is watching traffic. Once your vehicle is out of the main highway lanes you'll want to keep your hazards on and use any flares or marking signs you have to help provide visibility to other drivers that you have broken down. You should then call for assistance and remain with your vehicle until it arrives as wandering the highway can be extremely dangerous and leaving your car alone isn't advisable.
In some states and countries the passing lane on a highway is reserved strictly for passing and you can get a ticket for driving in it when you are not passing. In other jurisdictions, you are permitted to drive in the passing lane. This is why you need to be aware of local friving laws when you are driving away from your home.

That depends on how quickly you need to get past the vehicle you're passing. If I'm passing on a two lane highway with no traffic coming the other direction, in my opinion, a reasonable speed would be 10-20 MPH faster than the vehicle you're passing.
Vehicles which are not used for on-road use do not require a CDL.
Yes. Anytime a vehicle is on a public road or highway, even if it is parked, it must be insured.
If the ATV travels on any public road/highway, then yes, the driver and the vehicle must be licensed ... and insured.
Tire chains do not greatly affect highway driving in the snow, other than you need to drive slower to adjust. Make sure you have the proper chains for your vehicle.
There are a couple scenarios in this situation when a vehicle passes you on the left on a 2 lane highway. To answer your question, you should maintain your speed, but you can also slow down a little bit to get the passing vehicles past you faster. If there's a danger of a head-on collision with an oncoming vehicle and the vehicle passing you, you need to pay attention to what the passing vehicle does, only one of two scenarios will occur: If the passing vehicle decides to speed up to get past you to, you need to slow down! If the passing vehicle slows down to drop back behind you, you need to speed up! Whatever the passing vehicle decides to do in that scenario you do the opposite. The idea is to get the vehicle back into the right lane as quickly as possible!
I'm not in California but I'm guessing you will need at least, a business license, and a tow vehicle license for hauling vehicle's. Check with the Dept. of Licensing and the California Highway Patrol. Both have websites that will likely help you with your question.
