Default Maintaining VFR altitudes when following N/S roads/rivers

If you are following a road or river or other feature on the ground while
flying VFR, and that feature runs north/south but often veers off to one side
or the other, are you expected to change your altitude each time you move from
a heading of 0-179 to 180-359 or vice versa?



I usually "cut the corner" and roll inverted. This allows me to flip
the bird to the guy in the semi that's hogging the road below.
