I do... if there's no room for a parked car, me and a passing car... I take the lane.

Once had a Lambo tailgating me and constantly revving the engine. After 2 blocks we stopped at a light so i got of the bike and tapped on his window asking if he had a problem? Of course like a real man, he refused to even look at me... so I signaled he was #1 .

I know if it's too narrow and you don't take the lane, they'll cut you off.
