That's state law here, too, except they don't have the blocked lane exclusion. I've only been harassed here once by a cop; naturally, there was no bike lane. I quoted the vehicle code to him and he drove off. Passed him a quarter mile up the road parked in the turn lane reading his code -- he must have decided I knew what I was talking about, because he didn't catch up to me in the next half mile and re-start the conversation.
