I think one takes a chance when lanesplitting (legal or illegal). I've been tempted to but think again of the drivers side to side pulling something stupid on the split cuz he/she "didn't see the bike". I'm sure I will one day tho. Thing is when you split to the front line at a lighted intersection, they really get furious. You can see it and they consider it "rude and unruly" behaviour coming from a biker. Heck by the time the light is green and your up the street, they are just getting thru the intersection. They fail to understand the acceleration of the biker leaving them way behind (not even into 3rd or 4th gear) and not being an obstacle to their lane... When I'm drivin I just yield and offer the split to the biker.... I know he's gonna be miles ahead before I weave thru traffic in the Jeep ... its no big deal.
