I stay closer to the center now but people still seem to be thinking about it, they want you out of the way and up front.
Lane splitting is illegal here (or everything is legal as long as you don't get caught), however, theres very little place I could do it safely anyway, the problem with cars at stop light is true, often they don't register you as a whole vehicle and stop at some wierd places around you..often very near the rear tire
