Did I say or imply that I did not? There have been times when I have in fact been out riding that I have passed slower moving vehicles. Most recently (within the last month or so) I and friends were leaving The Pier in Downtown St. Petersburg. The road on The Pier itself is one lane but merges into an area of the road which is two lanes wide. There was a car in the right hand lane that was impeding us cyclists because it was going slower than the posted speed limit.
I signaled and moved into the left lane and passed said vehicle and then signaled and moved back to the right hand lane in front of said vehicle and was able to put enough space between myself and the vehicle that I passed that I was not in any way impeding said vehicle.
