    “On your left (right if you’re in a right hand pass country)” is something that would personally make me feel safer as a woman. It’s a clear, “hey I’m passing you not chasing you”

      I use that as a cyclist, but it only feels appropriate when the closing speed is high and/or the person in front is unaware and there’s a risk of a collision. If the situation is more like a semi-truck trying to pass another uphill, I think a little more verbosity is warranted.
