There is no maximum required clearance
You must give the cyclist 3 ft of clearance between your car and the bicycle.
Allow three feet of clearance when passing a cyclist. Reduce your speed if the roadway is narrow.
Assuming the question is about sharing the "lane" and not the "line". To share the "lane", the correct procedure for a motorist is to follow behind the cyclist at a safe distance until such time that it is safe to pass. It's the same as following a slow moving motorist. The cyclist has as much rights of use on the road as the motorist. Honking, road rage, and bullying (i.e. following too close or aggressively intimidating the cyclist) are not only dangerous for both parties, they're just realllly stupid on the motorist's part.
The recommended distance that a driver should maintain from a cyclist on the road is at least 3 feet.

A cyclist appears to be stationary with respect to another moving cyclist when they are both moving at the same speed and direction. This occurs when they maintain a consistent distance and speed relative to each other.
Friction between the tires and the road surface prevents the cyclist from skidding away. This friction allows the tires to grip the road and provides the necessary traction for the cyclist to maintain control while braking or turning.
When signaled by a Police Officer or as required for passing emergency vehicles.
When passing a bicyclist, it's generally recommended to maintain a clearance of at least three feet. This distance helps ensure the safety of both the cyclist and the driver, allowing for sufficient space to avoid any potential accidents. Some states have laws that specify a minimum passing distance, often ranging from three to five feet. Always check local regulations for specific requirements.
If you and your vehicle are in an accident, be sure to exchange phone numbers and addresses, as well as insurance, with the other party involved in the accident. Also, be sure that the police are notified of the accident.
Actually, a cyclist is. The chemical energy from the food that the cyclist ate is being changed into the kinetic energy on the bicycle. Even if the cyclist is traveling at a constant speed, there is some degree of resistance that must be overcome in order to maintain the constant speed.
