Lane Splitting Study/Report for the California Office of Traffic Safety.

OFF THE WIRE

Here is the first of three analysis reports that UC Berkeley put together based on their Enhanced Motorcycle Collision Data Project (Lane Splitting Study/Report) for the California Office of Traffic Safety. It is reports like this that will be used by California legislators to determine if and how they will legislate regulations on the practice. It is interesting how the report uses helmets as a classification of what type of lane splitter one can be. Some motorcycle rights advocates suspect that this might have been the plan all the long. Either way, helmets appear to be the focus to most pre-textual stops by law enforcement to justify other investigations.
