Define and legitimise motorcycle filtering

This petition was published by Smith on May 31, 2011

We the undersigned, call upon State and Federal Governments along with their bureaucratic instrumentalities to initiate without delay the clarification of Road Rule 141 to specifically define the differences between safe 'filtering' between lanes of stationary or slow moving traffic, in a manner that alleviates congestion and 'lane splitting' in a manner that is dangerous.

Further, we call upon State and Federal Governments to specifically acknowledge the benefits of 'filtering' by explicitly including within the National Road Rules wording that unambiguously permits safe filtering.

At this time the current policing penalties attached to this beneficial activity are not supported by recognised scientific evidence, whereas the benefits associated with relieving traffic congestion are published and acknowledged.
