I'm starting to do a lot more commuting on my bike these days and I have a question.
What's the rules/etiquette when you encounter a right hand turning lane (for turning onto a street or parking lot for example) and you want to go straight?
Do you remain on the far right towards the curb, thereby entering the turning lane, then continue straight? Or do you remain on the far right of the thru traffic lane?
The reason I ask is I assume you remain on the right of the thru traffic lane, but while I did this, a car passed me on the left while another did so on the right as it entered to the turn lane, and it was a very un-nerving squeeze being trapped between two cars.
what's the scoop?
