Default Bikes in road golf cart/bike lanes

I am more than willing to allow bike riders the 3 foot allowance as I pass in my vehicle. It would be appropriate if the bike rider did not crowd the white line making that allowance impossible for a car in some instances.

Hand signals are wonderful indicators as to what the bike rider intends to do at any given intersection;
an outstretched right arm or a raised bent left arm signals a right turn
an outstretched left arm indicates a left turn
a lowered bent left arm indicates a stop.
We all learned those as children and would do well to use them as adults.
