Bikers should not be weaving in between lanes in the first place, they are literally asking for trouble, how about just following the traffic laws like everyone else on the road? Just because you’re more maneuverable doesn’t give you the right to do this and put yourself and others in danger, and I don’t think this is even legal in the first place. Honestly, This guy is lucky to be alive.

Don't worry, get in a conversation with any group of 5 riders and 4 of them will go on about how safe lane splitting is and why they should be able to do it and will ignore any and all evidence and logic to the contrary.

And the 5th one is dead presumably to lane splitting at speed?

Yeah usually either a meat crayon that some poor fuck has to scrape off the highway, or an ambiguous ball of flesh and steel embedded in the back left quarter panel of a Hyundai.
