The school busses where I live in GA, on a country two lane road, pull into the middle of the road, straddling the center yellow line, and wait until all clear. I am cool with that. The local drivers are respectful, as far as I have seen.

Personally, I am not in a big enough hurry to pass a school bus while on a bike. I do, however, get a little pissy when the school bus passes me and then 100 feet later stop with the red flashers on.
But if they straddle the middle of the road doesn't that give a car room to pass either on the right or the left?
