I do something similar on my bike. If I see that there’s not enough clearance on the other lane, and that the car behind me might want to squeeze past me 10cm away from me, I will boldly occupy more space to precent them from passing at without running over me.
A cyclist just got killed this week by one of those aggressive drivers in my country. It wasn’t an accident, they ran over him on purpose. Stay safe on the road, there are actually insane people out there.

It’s called taking the lane and it’s a perfectly valid way to stay safe when having to share the road with cars.
