I would also recommend: http://www.vcbike.org/bikelaw/bikelaw.htm , though I would exercise some caution if attempting to use this in an incident with the police (who, by the way, frequently do not always know or understand these particular sections of the vehicle code).

Incidentally, I felt compelled to write this after an extremely close call this afternoon. It has been quite some time that I've had any incident whatsoever but this was particularly frightening. I was traveling along at about 20-25 MPH, a driver from behind actually saw me but thought it would be okay to race ahead to execute his right turn — directly in front of me (complete with his mirror grazing my elbow). Had I not been able to apply my brakes and perform a quick evasive turn I would doubtless have ended up under his wheel.
