Which points out the similar discriminatory problem with "keep to the side" laws like 21202. It's the same "cyclists should keep out of the way" mentality that forms the basis of bike lanes, bike lane laws, and keep-to-the-side laws.
In order to prove that a motorist was driving too slow, and his driving too slow was a contributory cause to some collision, you have to prove the motorist was driving too slow. With a cyclist it is assumed, unless proven otherwise. That's not fair.
