And, the same responsibilities; one being giving way to oncoming or overtaking traffic.

For a cyclist the dilemma is the balancing act between trying to stay out of the way, yet wanting to be visible. On a sunny day, it's dangerous for a cyclist to stay out of the way by riding in the shade in the curb lane, especially on a curve, if the center lane is in the sun.
