It would be nice if we got 3 feet in NC! NC only requires 2 foot of
clearance.

From http://www.ncdot.org/transit/bicycle/laws/laws_bikelaws.html
"20-149. Overtaking a vehicle.
(a) The driver of any such vehicle overtaking another vehicle
proceeding in the same direction shall pass at least two feet to the
left thereof, and shall not again drive to the right side of the
highway until safely clear of such overtaken vehicle. This subsection
shall not apply when the overtaking and passing is done pursuant to the
provisions of G.S. 20-150.1.
(b) Except when overtaking and passing on the right is permitted,
the driver of an overtaken vehicle shall give way to the right in favor
of the overtaking vehicle while being lawfully overtaken on audible
signal and shall not increase the speed of his vehicle until completely
passed by the overtaking vehicle. Failure to comply with this
subsection:
(1) Is a Class 1 misdemeanor when the failure is the proximate
cause of a collision resulting in serious bodily injury.
(2) Is a Class 2 misdemeanor when the failure is the proximate
cause of a collision resulting in bodily injury or property damage.
(3) Is, in all other cases, an infraction."

Have a good day!
