There are many types of emergencies you may encounter when you drive. If there is a steady flow of oncoming vehicles, use as much of the left lane as you safely can to pass the bicyclist. When the vehicle has passed, move to the left to allow plenty of space (at least three feet) to pass the bicyclist. Slow down and let the oncoming vehicle pass. Instead of driving between the vehicle and the bicyclist, take one danger at a time. Suppose you are on a two-lane road with an oncoming vehicle to the left and a bicyclist ahead to your right. If one danger is greater than the other, give more space to the most dangerous situation. For example, parked cars to the right and oncoming cars to the left. Sometimes dangers will be on both sides of the road at the same time. It is 55 mph on a two-lane undivided highway and for vehicles towing trailers.
