Never had a problem with it myself, been riding bikes since 2005.

Only becomes dangerous when doing it too fast to stop should someone in a car change lanes without signaling first or when someone changes lanes without looking in their side mirrors first too.

What's pointless is having a bike that's perfectly capable of cutting through traffic but being made to sit in line anyway.

Actually, research shows it is beneficial for decreasing traffic jams and preventing bottlenecking and wrecks.  Weird.

I am UK based, if people are driving properly then filtering/lane splitting isn't a problem....riding a bike or car isn't mutually exclusive, most people in the UK who ride bikes also have a car....our weather isn't good enough to just have a bike unfortunately!

Anyway, isn't 'murica the land of freedoms and personal responsibility, thought you guys would lap this shit up as a good thing, personal choice and all that.

It's great for the biker. Definitely gotta be cautious and drive defensively, but I've never had any issues. Actually more nervous about the splitter while in my car than the opposite.

Love how his shoes where removed. Personly i do not have a problem with it as i drive a truck. I do mot take chances with my life in order to ride a motorcycle in congestdd traffic. It is absolutley stupid for someone to say its safe as long as everyone driving safe. Where the fuck are thess so called safe drivers. I dont trust anyone on the road. Most bikers just cannot grasp this fact.

I'm a little shocked that  Princess is against lane splitting. I thought she was a right winger, don't they tend to be against government nanny state? Lane splitting should be legal however if you are not skilled enough to do it then you shouldn't do it. The government tells us how to do enough things it doesn't need to tell us how to ride our motorcycles. We can make our own decisions about our safety and live with the consequences

Where do you live that everyone despises bikers so? You might be projecting some.

It's not legalized, just not illegal either. Quit whining cause you're stuck in traffic. Maybe you should learn to ride?  :D
