I often find it difficult and stressful to deal with negotating with traffic especially with narrow lanes. Maybe I shouldn't be riding in 2c conditions with narrow lanes. For some reason I though that riding in the center of the lane was safe.

Fortunately none of these have on street parking. That is only on the 25-25mph residential streets where traffic is relatively light.
