Born and raised in London. Lane splitting and filtering are the main reasons people ride the daily commute as oppose to the underground. The traffic (pre congestion charge) was always a joke, so this takes a ton of time out of the daily travel times.
Scooters and mopeds do tend to take up a lot of the London commuter rides. Two years ago when I was last over, if you purchased a scooter (125cc) they gave you one year free insurance with it!
