Is there a yield sign for those coming off the hill and merging? If so, it's their responsibility to merge safely.
Like Eden said, though, right and dead ain't the way to be.

No, there is not a yield sign, but the traffic coming off the hill have merge and like I said this is a busy street so to avoid an accident they have to yield. Bicycles are considered vehicles here and therefore have to obey road rules for cars...but like you all have pointed out, right and dead is not the way to be. I just wanted to know if I was right. I actually stopped by the State Police barracks and asked one of the officers who had just pulled into the parking lot. He was very nice but didn't know enough about cycling laws. He said I should go talk to the city police. I think I'll do that.
