Fog line riders drive me nuts when I'm riding with a group. I don't trust that the road is going to be maintained so that the fog line is always rideable (if that's a word). Far too often there's a spot where the fog line disappears into broken pavement or a pothole. Further, Capt. Murphy will make sure there's a car coming up behind me when I spot it, and the driver is planning to squeeze by me in the lane, meaning it's not safe to go straight, and it's not safe to move left. That happens whether or not there's oncoming traffic, so the cager could move over if he knew it was needed.

That's why I ride the right tire track, or the middle of the lane if the pavement's better there. Safer for me, safer for the approaching driver who can evaluate whether it's safe for her to pass by moving over, or whether she needs to slow and pass two seconds later.
