Don't ever drive in California if this bothers you. It's very constant and almost scary there.
It’s the worst I’ve seen in the US. You better maintain your lane there.

Pretty sure that has nothing to do with why lane splitting is legal on some states
This thread is delivering
then enlighten me
quote:
Without lane splitting motorcyclists are more likely to be rear ended, to overheat and add to traffic congestion. As long as it is done properly according the guidelines, splitting lanes should remain safe and legal.
quote:
Another reason why motorcyclists lane split is because of heat. "In the Southwest you have to lane split or filter, because if you’re just sitting there it’s so hot you’re probably gonna die," says Walter. He says that lane splitting was actually born out of this necessity. Early two stroke motorcycles could not sit idle without overheating, so motorcyclists had to keep moving.
quote:
Since the CHP's decision was reported, motorcycle safety experts and motorcycling organizations have stepped up to voice their concerns about the future of lane-splitting, which supporters contend decreases traffic and helps motorcyclists' avoid overheating -- as most motorcycles are air-cooled and do not have radiators to keep their engines cool while standing still.

Lane filtering is illegal in all states besides California.

People in Los Angeles do this all the time. If traffic isn’t moving, let them take advantage of their small vehicles by driving through the middle

Yeah nothing like trying to make a power move lane change in slow traffic only to have a bike come through at 60 when traffic is doing 5.

I almost killed one last weekend at College and Perkins doing this. He crossed over right in front of me after flying up the middle of traffic, nearly took him out just before it goes to one lane, missed him by what seemed like just a few inches. I never saw him. From Perkins to Mike Anderson's I watched him do it at every other intersection, seemed like he was begging to get him. Really shook me up, if I would have hit him it would have been 100% his fault but he definately would have been on the losing end. Don't want that image in my mind.
Its jackasses like that that ruin it for all of the responsible motorcyclists out there. Seems like most of the ones I encounter either try to see how many laws they can break or intentionally try to cause accidents to see how far they can push it to make other drivers react and avoid them.

It shows an inordinate amount of trust in a highly distracted group of average humans...

And then riders scream about how many of them end up splattered. The line riding isn’t as bad as the jackasses popping wheelies down I-10

Let's change the laws for the Harley riders Lol. Do Volkswagen beetles get special laws? They are aircooled as well.

You get use to it and learn to look out for them.

the hell if I know, I'm just going off of what I've been always been told is a reason and what the internet is now telling me is true as well. I hate motorcycles on the road

Whichever arbitrary location makes his bullshite the most believable.
