My commute just got shorter...
...ever since I became comfortable with lane splitting on the freeway.

How does that work? Is the traffic stopped? Moving slowly bumper-to-bumper? Or speeding along? Even with traffic stopped, I don't think I could do that.

Just be careful, motorist around here get pretty aggressive with folks they percieve as cutting in line. That is after the coffee, cell phone use, McBreakfast on the run, screaming school kids in the back seat. That time you save my come back in a hurry...

I really wanna lane split here in PA when I'm sitting in traffic. I wish it was legal...and I'm afraid some dickwad will try to take me out because his poor fat ass is sitting in a long line of traffic.

Maybe in Cali they are used to it and will not get all worked up about it...of course it only takes one though to ruin your day. |

a friend of mine is working to get lane splitting legalized in TN. Not sure if I would participate but it would be nice to have the option.
