Never going to happen here. That would be one less ticket our awesome police forces could write.

Stunting here apparently. Lots of points, huge fine, and around $1,000 impoundment fee you'll never get back even if you fight!

Besides, as stated in one of my previous threads, even if it were legal here there would need to be some awareness for our fellow (jackass) cagers. I know at least 2 people who have admitted to wanting or tried knocking riders off their bikes for lane splitting.

The Aussie cops write TONS more tickets then Candian cops. I am actually really surprised they are doing this there.

Mind you they had a bike rally a few years ago where bikes pretty much took over the roads a congested up the entire city.

Sorry, unless you're a religious group or a visible minority, you can't block traffic.

Riders are a visible minority right? lol

Or hell, how hard would it be to start a religion based on two wheels.
...And what if we just all ride the speed limit down something?...Though I'm sure that would be very difficult to coordinate.

 

[BusaBob]

riding two wheels IS a religion...

...and I'm a visible minority

aghh another good reason to move to australia!

you have to remember -these guys have a year long riding season, so their drivers are, hopefully, better experienced with motorcyclists.

What about GTA drivers?....... :sad3:

That argument doesn't fly, **** happens in California too.

I didn't say there's no accidents... Their drivers are surrounded by motorcycles year long, and it makes a difference in safety

Poland or Germany seem a lot better. Look up a lane splitting video in Poland, the cars actually move out of the way for the rider.
