[QUOTE=Mirius;3286742 If the cyclist were on the right of the lane, then there is no possible way that you could overtake 'safely'[/QUOTE]
This is exactly the point. If the cyclist in the pic is in the right hand half of the lane, the cyclist cannot be over taken safely. If the cyclist is in the left hand half of the lane, the cyclist can over taken safely.
If a cyclist is in the right hand side of the lane, for no discernable reason for an extended period of time, the cyclist is effectively blocking opportunities for vehicles to safely overtake.
