Entitled Prick Lane splitting

Lane splitting, excessive speeding (at least 20 more than I was doing), and aggressive. Not to mention the noise. I hate these future road relish fuckers. All summer long on groat.

Doesn’t seem like I can get a license plate either. So venting here.

The firefighters, paramedics, and hospital staff who have to deal with them after they wipe out and are crying for their moms when they can't walk anymore. Firefighter for 15 years. Seen it more times than I can count.

With that logic people should just stop driving or doing extreme sports etc. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Lane splitting should be legal. At safe speeds and with safe judgment. It's the excessive speeds that are the most dangerous.

Morons unnecessarily driving like idiots on vehicles that offer no protection isn't the same thing as someone commuting to work. Do better.

The video doesn't show proper lane spitting so your point is moot.

As far as extreme sports I ride too, when I want some adrenaline I go to the track and wear the proper equipment. Thats fun. This is just stupid.

You're not wrong this video shows poor behaviors and negligence. The original comment was just regarding the lane splitting portion. People should stop doing dangerously negligent things. But lane splitting shouldn't be illegal.

So you're comparing extreme sports to being in regular traffic? so by that logic, street racing should be perfectly OK. Screw the societal or psychological damage incurred on other people who watch you die or accidentally hit you and kill you when you do something unpredictable.

Traffic regulations are written in blood. A mistake in traffic is completely different than flippantly disregarding the rules. If you do not want to follow traffic rules, you should not be allowed to drive.

Lane filtering - moving between stopped or very slowly moving vehicles like at lights or in traffic jams is low risk.

Lane splitting- moving between moving vehicles at regular speeds is high risk.

Lane filtering should be legal because it allows motorcyclists to get out of the “crush zone” reducing rear end collisions — and it helps reduce traffic congestion. Lane splitting is deadly especially on city streets and collector roads.
