It's one of the most egregious double standards applied to cyclists. Motorists expect you to pull as far to the as possible* when traffic is moving, but then if traffic is stopped or just slow, filtering alongside the cars, in what is usually the same narrow space that motorists give you when they pass you, is considered "passing on the right". When it's a red light some people even consider it "cutting in line" as if such a concept actually exists for drivers. <br /><br />*A lot of states and cities require cyclists to ride as far to the right as "practicable" but when you have angry selfish motorists behind you honking their horns, that really means ride in the gutter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
