Has anyone in TX heard of a new motorcycle law that allows bikes to ride the line like in CA?

 

explain!!!! not sure what you mean by "ride the line".....might be taking a trip to texas early january to ride a bit in the warmer weather

 

The law in texas just got passed that allows bikes to "lane split" in traffic. So basically if the highway is all clogged up, motorcycles are allowed to ride on the dotted lines between cars. For traffic efficiency was their verdict.

 

nice!!!!!!!!! we do that here.....but not exactly backed by johnny law on that one.....and typically tends to be when traffic is moving and trying to get away from those flashing lights....cause you know I don't wanna slip into an epileptic seizure

 

ya it's legal in Cali, but definatly not in Hawaii, you should see how pissed of the locals get when you try that **** it's crazy, people will want to fight you, its soo stupid.

 

we do it all the time here in the city when traffic backs up.


some people get pissed others are just amazed we just went by,

gotta watch out for random opening car doors though !

 

I heard some sh*t about a new wheelie law in tx. anyone else hear anything about it . Says there are legal if speed lim. is maintained

 

i doubt it but id move there if so

I sure do appreciate all the replies yeah I thought thats what I heard but I didn't wanna start doing it and F-N get stopped and harrased anymore then we already do lol. About the wheelie thing I talked to some PIGS about it and they just can't give you a ticket for exibition of excelartion I'm sure they can still get you for recklace driving and speeding all kinds of b/s that they can think of and slam you on the hood of their car for!!! (still a little bitter)

 

hahahahahaa...I actually went to the link.....nice work

 

wtf...

 

seizures do suck! I wish they had some wheelie law in place that allowed us to do them but there is no way in hell that it would ever happen. I lane split on occasion here in CO but for some reason the midwest state patrol have wild hairs to spare and wont hesitate to chase you to kansas. I just got a red license anyway and am gonna have a hard time with my fire academy now, plus its winter. But I shall ride again...oh yes...I shall ride again....

 

a wheelie law is a nice fantasy....and will remain a fantasy........if one does ever exist it will be where you are allowed to ride wheelies only in designated, confined areas....definately NOT on the streets among other vehicles.

and Darius is right....gotta watch for them randomly opening car doors, they can be a ***** when cruising between deadlock traffic

 

Dont Have Time To Go To Other Links, But The Law Did Not Pass Tx.

 

hah illegal in washitington to. i was on my r1 and there was about 1 miles of bumper to bumber traffic so i started to split lanes n a cop came after me lol n i told him to off haha but yea people in washitington would pr0bably run you off the road if you where to lane split.

 

Damn,

i was hoping it actually passed. Granted I do it anyway it just would have been nice for it be more legal-like.

 

no...whats that about?

 

cant belive i got sucked into that one

 

Technically there is no law agains wheelies. at least there is nothing in the mv code but they will still find something to right u for it. reckless is definately too excessive but wouldnt be surprised to see them write it.
