Bikes: Some bikes. Hell, they're all the same, ain't they?

On a multilane road with narrow lane, ride in the middle of the right lane.

In my city 70% of cyclists use the sidewalk, remaining 30% hug the curb/ white line. If this is the right way to ride ( which I think it is ), how come nobody does it?
Because, unlike some people here, I've actually driven long enough to know what it's like to try to switch lanes with little to no warning while hoping that I don't get rear ended or have to force my way into a nonexistent gap to my left.
