That's awesome. Probably made him feel good that someone out there was paying attention. Maybe made some other drivers think too.

I think some people that hate lane splitting (illegal here) are simply jealous. But having less traffic in the lineup overall is good for all the people on the road ? A little bit of responsible riding on his part and courtesy on yours didn't hurt anyone.
