They're acting like ten or fifteen cars is a lot. Sure it's courteous to take turns and let some cars pass, and apparently (from the article) the law requires it, but if 10 or 15 cars is the basis of the complaint I think they're complaining over nothing. If the law requires pulling over any time there's a car behind you, then a high-traffic road would preclude riding because progress would be so slow for the rider.
And you get out of their way because you are going to start a chain reaction wreck when somebody over 10 car lengths back doesn't see what the hindrance is or fails to stop in time.

You are a traffic hazard and can't be seen like a John Deere.
