Riding in traffic is a lot more than just hangin in the designated bike lane on the right shoulder. There are many situations where that is more dangerous that taking an entire traffic lane, especially in crowded downtown areas.
Rule of thumb I use in traffic - if I can ride at the speed of the car traffic, I will very likely be using the lane as any car would.
