In my neighborhood, the bicycle laws are very specific. "Single file law" means just that. Cyclists must ride within 1 foot of the shoulder and cannot ride 2 across unless no car is visible for 300'. There is a 15 mile stretch with a single section that has 300' visibility and it is also a passing zone. I also ride a bicycle, but there isn't a chance in hell I would ride one there, it's a dangerous place for cyclists and cars to coexist. Also note, that this road doesn't go anywhere. Any cyclists are out for recreation, not commuting (not that that matters). I expect cyclists to obey the law. I'll pass 4' from the shoulder, if you swerve wide it's your fault, not mine. If you are 2 across around a blind corner, you can expect a close call and a finger. I don't mind cyclist endangering their own lives, but when they choose to disregard the law, they endanger mine, as well.
