It was bumper to bumper.. so yes, definitely should be legal. If other states has a no helmet law, why can't lane splitting be legal? I rather wear a helmet and lane split any day then not being able to lane split and having the option to not wear a helmet. No helmet = fail. Lane splitting = good.
Agreed. Unfortunately, I think legislators are more likely to be sympathetic to the "they should wait just like everybody else" line of thinking. Us motorcyclists need more lobbying skills!
