Where I live, there is about zero opportunity to ever pass a motor vehicle on a two-lane road, regardless of "do not pass". As far as passing cyclists (and slow moving mopeds), I have never seen anyone not pass regardless of "do not pass" provided no on-coming traffic. And I don't care a lick, except in certain areas where I am going downhill 30 mph+ with sidewinds that move me around a bit in the lane. The typical "straddle the double-yellow" on the pass doesn't work well on these sections.
