Is this true? What are the circumstances in Florida where one can take the lane?

316.2065 Bicycle regulations.
--

(6) Persons riding bicycles upon a roadway may not ride more than two abreast except on paths or parts of roadways set aside for the exclusive use of bicycles. Persons riding two abreast may not impede traffic when traveling at less than the normal speed of traffic at the time and place and under the conditions then existing and shall ride within a single lane.

what do you mean? You mean that you will not share a lane when making a left-hand turn?
i mean, i guess ill have to wait behind the car then make my left. I can't afford the tickets even if i think i am in the right as a cyclist to determine the safety of my own turn.

i would like to fight this, but i'm not sure if i can unless i had arrived at the stop sign first.
