There's the rub, how often do motor vehicles give cyclists a full lane, very rarely in my opinion, often times the vehicles might move slightly over if traffic permits or just barrel on through if it doesn't. Safety wise that is a much bigger concern than someone going to the front of the line when they are on a bike.
Question, I ride on the far right side of the road, if traffic stops, there are cars directly besides me because I don't take up a full lane (not that vehicles would ever give on but alas that is life), should I just stop where I am even though there is no reason to do so?
