2. Comply with the VFR visibility and distance from cloud criteria in
14 CFR Section 91.155 (Basic VFR Weather Minimums).

3. Comply with instrument flight rules that are applicable to this
flight; i.e., minimum IFR altitudes, position reporting, radio
communications, course to be flown, adherence to ATC clearance, etc.





That's great but that's a problem for pilots, not ATC.

I agree. But, some ATC facilities will take the pilot to task if he
wants to go below MEA or MIA.
