"I am only saying that it is safer to claim your lane. You specifically DO NOT want cars to be able to pass you by by only partially moving into another lane. That creates dangerous situations because it is hard for car to pass while respecting the 3 ft passing rule."

That's interesting - I routinely ride close to the right hand line (often technically in the curb lane, or right on the line) because if there's a break in parked cars, I'll pull into the curb lane and allow cars behind me to speed up and pass. I do this as a matter of courtesy; but Jasper's right, it might make things less safe. I'll have to reconsider.
