Do the smart folks think splitting SEMI's is DUMB? (Video)

I just think it's a bit two-faced to be judgemental toward them when we've all done it.

no. we have not.

ive never ridden like a jackass like the ppl in that video. never split traffic thats moving at 65 mph. never split between a semi truck while going over the speed limit.

for the record, im not against lane splitting. but its to be done when traffic is moving very slowly. if everyone is going 65, there is no reason to split.

splitting lanes while traffic is at a dead stop or crawling along at a snails pace is one thing. splitting lanes going 80 or faster is another completely.

Also, recording it and posting it on the internet is another level of stupid...

altogether

Now that is a much better poll.

I went ahead and went with rarely. Although I could have probably have said never in traffic. I don't consider a certain level of speeding reckless and I also never weave through traffic.

[EagleCock]

I've passed in the shoulder before, but never lane split

[John]

were you going 140 when you did it too?

[magley64]

I think i was doing 75ish when I did it...last time

I think cutting traffic while they are stopped should be legal.

I definitely think being able to filter up at stops should be legal.

[DangBruhY]

I had a 2000 Honda F4 and that SOB would overheat. If it wasn't for cutting traffic in Cali, I'd been stuck on the side of the road quite a bit. I don't know how air cooled bikes make it through the summer.

in pretty much every other country in the world it is.

its standard practice in europe. in fact, in spain, they just started putting areas at the front of the line at traffic lights for bikes only.

I got my 1st threat issued to me today online.

I was told by the creator of that video that he is an ex-marine and is trained to kill.

Tell him you're NinjaNick and trained to thrill...

[EagleCock]

Tell him you own a panda that knows kung fu so bring it.

[NinjaNick]

OK...wow...now he's really losing it over this filtering nonsense.

No point in waistin space on this site when clearly you have made it personal. So when and where can we meet?

[magley64]

aww nick, i think hellarider has a crush on you

You're scared now aren't you??

It's fucking nonsense.

I was going to say the same thing. Their lane splitting is done wrong. Lane splitting in of itself isn't that bad of a thing, IMHO. Its even accepted (maybe even legal but not sure) in places like California. But, the traffic there is completely different. In San Francisco, for example, the traffic is bumper to bumper four lanes accross. And many of the highways like the Golden Gate Bridge don't have exits for miles. Those two things make it a bit safer because you don't have people switching lanes. Their speed is relatively constant and no one is switching lanes. But in the video, those guys are riding through huge pockets of highway void that many of those cars may decide to enter. At those speeds, you cannot fault a driver for any accident that were to occur.
