What do you think about the motorcycle lane splitting bill?

This bill is too risky!

It's a safer option for motorcyclists.

As a motor cyclist, cutting between cars (don't care what they call it, it is still cutting) is dangerous at best and deadly at worst.

It is so unsafe for motorcyclist to drive between cars, we can barely see them as is. They should follow the same motor vehicle laws that all cars do.

I am a motorcycle rider and I never thought I would agree with Kate Brown about anything, but Cutting lanes is foolish at best and deadly at its worst. I remember guys seeing a motorcycle cutting lanes years ago and open their car door to stop them, it makes people angry! Great reason for road rage

As a rider i've seen too many close calls when other motorist aren't paying attention so in my opinion allowing this is not safe for anyone.

Why should motorcyclists have special rules? Follow the rules of the road like everyone else is supposed to. Too risky to themselves and others.

I have seen too many motorcycle vrs car accidents this way. Cars not paying attention and turning into them.

I wish they had an edit button. I meant to say too many DRIVERS not paying attention, not cars.

People who have NEVER rode a motorcycle seem to have an opinion about something they know NOTHING about. I can't believe how many non-motorcyclist think it's about being in a hurry or saving time. IT'S NOT! IT'S ABOUT SAFETY FOR THE PERSON ON THE MOTORCYCLE!

We riders need this because most of us have air cooled engines. We need to keep moving to cool our engines. Carl

We should all be in favor of anything that creates a safer community for all of us, regardless of political affiliation. Since our federal funds have been decreased, we need another form of revenue to supplement our fire fighting revenue.

Do you not value trees and animals? Do you understand how precious the forest is for all of us? This is not a partisan issue. It's a matter of how we value life of all kinds, animal and humans alike. Please think about your words before speaking.

The federal budget deficit would be EASILY diminished if the Rs in Congress would vote to make the tax system fairer by making the top richest pay their fair share. But they won't. They'd rather take from the poor+ middle class and sale public lands vs. doing the obvious and fairest remedy!!

It is a shameful idea. These lands belong to all of us, and are not for sale.

Hey, If Mike Lee wants to sell Utah's public lands, see how his constituents like it with theirs. Stay away from Oregon and the other states who don't like it. If Trump wants his big ugly bill to pass, reimburse the government for what the taxpayers pay for his golfing at his resorts + his parade.

This would be a crime and one that is irreversible. If Trump needed the money so bad, maybe he shouldn’t have spent our hard-earned tax money on his birthday parade. I am a public land owner and I oppose this proposition. How dare Mike Lee try pulling off this crap on us. We’re not stupid.

Public lands are our heritage due to the foresight of great individuals. Only those interested in profiteering propose and support the rape of Oregon and public properties.
