I've actually had idiots pull off the road ahead of me because they wanted to discuss the matter. One guy told me he called the sheriff because he thought I wasn't riding far enough to the right. I was in the middle of friggin' nowhere, and there was no traffic. I was about 5 feet from the right so he could easily pass without jeopardizing anyone -- though he did have to shift over a bit, I guess. Strangely, the sheriff did not ticket me (or even show up for that matter).
