1. Maintain proper following distance 2. Move left into the passing lane 3. Complete the pass
Check your mirrors and blind spots to ensure it's safe to change lanes. Signal your intention to change lanes at least 100 feet before making the move. Check again for any vehicles in your intended path, and smoothly steer into the new lane. Cancel your signal once you have completed the lane change and adjust your speed as needed.
left... ...but do not impede existing traffic, and move to the right lane as soon as it is safe to do so.
Yes, of course it is safe! I mean, have you seen the website? They take very precautionary steps when making it.
Stay well behind the bicyclist until he turns off or gets in a designated bike lane. If you have a lane next to you, make a lane change and pass him when it is safe and legal to do so.

Mirror,signal, manoeuvre as simple as that.
Unfortunately MV1 more than likely, you cannot enter any lane of traffic until safe to do so. So in this case, if were not safe, (other vehicles in the left lane), the thought would likely be you should've stopped and waited until the lane was clear and it was safe. You can't just change lanes (no matter what the reason) and hit a 'innocent' that was safely traveling and had possession of that lane. How could they possibly be at fault? Another argument would be how long ahead of this lane closing was it announced?
yes
In Boise, Idaho, there is no specific law that dictates a 5-second blinker rule for changing lanes. However, it is recommended to signal at least 100 feet before changing lanes as per general traffic laws and safe driving practices.
When you are in the far right lane, your turn should put you in the far right lane. Then, when safe, you can merge into the left lane to pass. This is for a right turn from a 2 or 4 lane onto a 2-or higher lane road.
Merge into the nearest left lane when it is safe to do so.
