Lane splitting (sharing) interview

See, for me that was freaky to watch. I gasped several times thinking he was getting pinched off, and was going to hit a car.

Understand that the principal of this is so foreign to me because I am NEVER in traffic like that. Most of the time I ride (unless I go to the freeway and even then we rarely see traffic like that) I barely see other cars coming towards me, much less in front or behind me.

He made an excellent point about a smaller vehicle in front of a bigger vehicle not being able to see a motorcycle coming even in his mirrors because he can't see around the bigger vehicle. Makes sense.

Good to have different riding experiences presented here. What the officer is doing is exactly what I do several times a week.
