If it adds to the discussion at all, me, being a rather logical chap, with little motorcycling experience, finds more sense in the standing on the pegs and doing a slight weave than aiming directly for the driver (this seems to make the bike’s head-on silouette even smaller, in my mind). HOWEVER, in my interpretation of Jeff’s scenario, starting in the right travel lane and angeling towards the left would make that lateral movement, or, “weave” that was mentioned. However, if the driver does notice and yield to you, you’ll be the one still headed for him. Probably not the best position to be in, but what do I know? I’m just the newb.
