Hey guys...
Living in Northern California, its a must on hot days and slow ass traffic.
I do it all the time on my Tourier Valkyrie, although I am glad this will go into a law for us in CA, I wish
the Maximum speed was the posted speed limit, not the 50mph that is being proposed (15mph over current traffic speed) is how I read it.
I will be installing a action cam on my helmet this month to capture some of the experiences I face on a regular basis.. (link will go here)
I know cagers are upset about motorcycles lane sharing, but these are the same idiots that are TEXT-ers while driving, no blinkers when changing lanes, illegal side window tinters, yelling at their kids while driving ....
I say, if the the driver of the car stays focus, looks in their mirrors, stay off the center line, then lane sharing/splitting is not a problem... BUT . huge BUT...
Becareful... if you dont feel safe doing it, then don't.
a few things I look for when traffic slows on the freeways:
1. out of state licenses plates, they have no clue on what lane sharing is.
2. Handicap stickers, give them space..
3. heads tilting down, texting/reading their messages.
4. gaps with the vehicle in front of them, texting/reading their messages.
5. make eye contact with the drivers thru their mirrors, make sure they see you.
alright..
Ride safe.
