How Much Of The Road You Can Claim
The road is for all. You are “entitled” to no more of it than the length and width of your car, cart, cycle or body. There is no such, thing- as “my half” and “your half.” All that the law says is that you shall pass on the left and overtake on the right. Keep to the left, whether your pace is 40 miles an hour or four. If you get unnecessarily in other people’s way, you are lazy or rude to them; if you stay there, you are a danger to them. You should pull in to your left as readily for vehicles approaching and wanting to pass as for those wanting to overtake.
