This is a situation , I think we all find ourselves in. I've always been torn as what to do.. guess, it depends upon the length of the road that cars are unable to pass due to the double yellow. . The conundrum is, we yield to this situation it will only arise minutes later, should the double yellow go on for miles. Getting off the road could be construed as meaning we yield our right to be there; for the stubborn -headed among us.?
. But, what does other slow moving vehicles do such as farm tractors in similar situations. The kind element among that group get off the road. Should I hold up traffic long enough , I usually follow that pattern.. Call it being a good cycling ambassador - upholding a good name for all cyclists. Or just call it good public relations.
