If you just "ride to the right", they try to "squeeze by" you and that's where you're likely to get hit.

Your right about that. When I started riding a few months ago I learned that lesson real quick. People will crowd you even when there isn't a car in the lane next to them or coming toward them. When I take the lane, they don't even attempt it and will go wide around me when it's safe to go around.
