Default Rules for who

I would like to pose a question for discussion. I need to set the stage for my comments. I have already discussed the facts regarding the double no-pass yellow lines with a sheriff's deputy who states that a driver is never to cross those double yellow lines. Now to my point; suppose you have a street, double center yellow lines, no golf cart lane. Lets suppose we have two bicyclists riding side-by-side in your direction. You need to be aware that traffic laws state a vehicle must clear a bicyclist by no less than four (4) feet.. The problem, there is insufficient room between the double yellow lines and four feet from the two bicycle riders. So, what is the auto driver to do?? Remember, those yellow lines on the Villages streets are continuous end to end. If you don't like to use bicycles, suppose it is a golf cart that you would like to pass....
