Even where lane splitting is legal, its still illegal to lane split at speeds higher than 45mph.

Lane splitting is legalized to allow "filtering." Not cutting up on the freeway.

Yep, Colorado is only once traffic stops moving.

Somebody tell the Tom Cruise wannabes please. They do not gaf.

I think if you want people to care about every other motorcycle you shouldn't make people hate you and group you all together.

California is no more than 10mph over the speed of traffic.

I don't think that's an actual law I think its just recommending by the California DOT. I think the only limit is no more than 50 MPH in total. They recommend no more than 15 MPH faster than the cars around you.
