Great visual indicators of how to occupy a lane

there is probably more agreement that the best place for any road user to see and be seen is the middle of the lane in another road user's line of sight. where the risk of surprising them is minimised and ther're are less likely to overtake. You'd think that is where you'd find the more vulnerable road users so people can look out for them

I still prefer to say 'just to the right of the left-hand tyre track' rather than 'middle of the lane', as it takes care of cases where you go around parked cars, for instance. It's defined in relation to dynamic traffic, not to static infrastructure. It makes making eye contact with drivers behind easier. There are of course cases where it's advisable to be further towards the right, and certainly at pinch-points, at certain junctions, or in narrow lanes.
