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.

Motorists and motorcyclists don't follow the rules now!

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
