Two issues:

1. This dude went too fast for that condition. I've seen worse though, but still he went too fast.

2. That son of a bitch on that minivan should get his ass kicked for trying to cross the yellow line. That was totally his fault.

Didn't know that, thanks for the info.

There are lanes in the city? Funny, I've never noticed.

Funny, I was thinking the same thing. If you were lane splitting in Manhattan, how would you know?

i didnt bother watching the vid-but lane splitinng kicks ass. my morning commute is 10mins cuz theres no traffic

evening commute is ten mins cuz i split, not even weaving and speedin, just whenever i have to stop at a light, i make my way to the front. if i rode like a idiot i could probably get home in 5mins-whenever i take the car it takes 25-35mins to get home
