That is where all the glass and other debris end up and it's a good way to puncture a tire. While i don't agree with riding right down the middle of a lane, i do sometimes try to be out into a lane far enough so any car that tries to pass me should have to get into the other lane to do so. I don't say that to be a jerk to the motorist. You'd be surprised how many cars will pass you without getting out of the same lane if you are riding the white line. Passing a cyclist should be done like passing a car. You get out of your lane, go around and return to the lane.</blockquote>
