i have never had a problem and i tend to ride in the lane whenever possible. i try to let traffic pass me if i can, but if i feel unsafe getting over further to the right, i won't do it. they can wait, or they can pass me... i have been passed WAY too close on several occasions, but i have never had to 'bail' or swerve out of the lane to avoid getting hit.
**knock on wood**. now that i said it....
