With no paved shoulder, a cyclist is better off keeping a dominate position of the lane than get over to the side and tempt a car to pass in unsafe conditions
Exactly. The most dangerous thing is people who think that they don't have to treat passing you with respect and safety. Not getting t-boned or run over from behind or something. "Oh it's just a cyclist, so it doesn't matter that I can't see, I'll squeeze past and if a car is coming from the opposite direction at the last second, I'll just squeeze the rider into the ditch at 25 mph." Those close calls happen more than anything I've seen. Then the driver yells about a cyclist when the whole time it's because they made an illegal pass. Cyclist was taking up more of the lane so that you wouldn't do exactly what you did, not to force you to do it.
