Well, its a study that was done in Belgian. A place that is very bike friendly?

How Motorcycles Could Eradicate Traffic - MSN Autos

I ridden in CA which allows lane splitting. I live in TX which does not allow, legally, lane splitting. Its come up many times in the legislature but never come to an actual vote. I would welcome it, but I think TX drivers are too territorial to allow riders to pass safely. Some idiot redneck would just open the his truck door just to prove a point. I've been on the road where there was an accident scene ahead and traffic had stopped, I took to the right shoulder and was moving at a slow pace and had several drivers move over to block my path...
