Super defensive riding, in my opinion.  Don't ever assume a driver sees you when you're on the road.  I never enter an intersection on the right side of a car - if I can't slip ahead, I slip behind.
Otherwise, for off-road I'm not sure things would be much different for biking.  Maybe marked less than where you've been.
As for camping, I can't compare CA to NL.

More detail on what you mean by rules?
We ride on the right side of the road, but I suspect that you have something else on your mind?
