Not super related, but I saw a video of someone arguing lane splitting and riding on the shoulder on a motorcycle should be legal because 'being side swiped is the most survivable accident to have' but this video shows the flaw in that logic
Lane splitting is safer for motorcycles (less than 30 mph) in places that have allowed it, but because rear end collisions are so common and dangerous for motorcycles. Helps traffic too because it's basically an extra lane
I wouldn’t do it though in all but the slowest traffic there’s some fucking weirdos out there that would throw a door open on you or something and people constantly change lanes without signaling or looking

In the Netherlands, low powered motorcycles and scooters are allowed to use (some) intercity bikepaths to keep them off highways as much as possible.
50cc or under can use bike lanes in boston

Yeah riding a motorcycle is already scary, but you're supposed to do it going slow and while traffic is going slow, which should help
