I don't really think it helps with congestion. They already get free passes in the HOV lane. Lane splitting does nothing but startle drivers and cause potentially more accidents, or damage to cars.

I almost ran one over, because I was startled by this loud bike flying between cars.

Usually I'll hug the line on the drivers side to prevent any of that when I'm in Cali.

It's the most retarded "legal" thing there.

how would it not help with congestion?

if there are 18k motorcyclists in LA and lane splitting was not legal
would you want 18k more vehicles out on the roads as opposed to having them lane split their way off so they are out of the way and they can get home faster and there are less vehicles out on the road to prevent you from getting from where you need to be? and congestion is not the only reason why it became legal, it was also proven in studies that lane splitting prevents accidents regarding motorcyclists and distracted drivers and deaths of motorcyclists went down since lane splitting became legal

im sorry if this comes off as offensive but if you were paying attention to the roads and checking your mirrors, you would not be startled by motorcyclists lane splitting and what you're doing is in fact illegal(its called impeding traffic)

honestly you sound like one of those ignorant cagers who hate the fact that motorcyclists can just pass you while you're stuck in traffic sitting there

Sometimes paying attention doesn't help when you have some dumbass kid doing 100 plus and lane splitting through traffic like alot of them do here in California

I cannot stand the drivers in the area I live. Here in Marina del Rey/Venice/Santa Monica most of the drivers act like they are entitled to drive how they want, and own the road. Nothing but self involved, self absorbed idiots. Most of the time it seems to be Priuses that think their car is blazingly fast, and act as such. That, and women who think they own the roads in their Mercs and drive down the center of the lines. Oh, and don't get me started on the ones that cut you off, then throw their arms in the air like WTF! How are you going to cut me off, then act like I did something wrong!

ok but what they are doing is illegal but again if you are paying attention, you will notice them approaching you at a fast rate of speed in your rear view mirror way before they get anywhere near you

what i really dont like is the ignorance behind lane splitting laws and the emotion behind them as well(i cant tell you how many times i have seen people get pissed that a motorcyclist passed them up in traffic because it isnt "fair", heck you dont see people whine about 1000hp cars street racing at 200+mph on the highways and that imo is much more of a danger than some squid looking to get himself killed while riding his sport bike

back to what my reply was saying though, you cant tell me that is someone who is splitting lanes in traffic at 10mph assuming you're completely stopped(legally they can only go 10 above traffic flow until it is no longer considered safe by a LEO) has startled you for any reason other than being a typical cager and not paying attention and on top of that, it is safer for the motorcyclists to be lane splitting in traffic than it is for them to just be sitting there behind a car where a distracted driver will not see them
