All of Asia does it almost without incident and the Trafic congestion benefits are obvious. Encourage Australians to ride to work and reduce CBD congestion without spending a single public dollar.

Filtering reduces traffic congestion and removes the rider from the impact zone between cars. This is actively encouraged in Europe with space for bikes to muster at the front of the line at every stop light. Done at under 30kph, there is very little risk to drivers, riders and pedestrians

The practise of lane filtering is not only (proven!!) safer for bikers, but alleviates congestion on our roads and thus better for the environment (traffic moving quicker)

A clear definition of 'lane splitting' and 'lane filtering' is urgently needed!

I rode sydney in the 60s. Lane splitting was routine. Caringbah to Artarmon 6 years. No accidents lane splitting.
I still ride to work in ACT.

Lane splitting makes so much sense I can't believe it is not legal.

I support the move to legalize 'lowspeed lane filtering' and ask you to support it. I have been riding 35 yrs and ridden overseas ie UK EU, USA and they allow Lane Filtering and 'LANE SPLITTING" which would be UNSAFE on our roads here.
Filtering at lights and stoppages will improve safety for riders and vehicle drivers allowing better flow also.

I have never seen any one hurt by low speed or stand still traffic lane splitting in fact it reduces trave time not only for the rider but also the motorist as the bike dose not take up more distance and also saves emissions due to the fact the it's not sitting in traffic idling away fuel

I already filter most days on my way to work. Only when traffic is moving at less than 50km/h. Never more than around 10km/h faster than other traffic. Never in bad weather, on unfamiliar roads or where lanes are narrow (on bridges etc). At traffic lights, always stopping ahead of cars for visibility. I've never had a complaint from another road user.

I have been rear ended in a car three times. SCARY.
I have been almost rear ended on a motorcycle. VERY SCARY. It's time to standardise the law and make our roads a safer place for motorcyclists, and to eliminate this situation of ambiguity.

Rear end accidents at lights are too common and the risks to riders is increased in traffic. On top of this motorcycles get hot sitting in peak hour.

The only times I have even come close to a serious accident is when I've sat in traffic in between cars.

Twice I've had to move quickly after hearing a horn behind me and twice the car behind me collided with the car in front on me.

Had I 'obeyed' the anti-filtering laws - I'd be another statistic.

I have seen so many bumper to bumper clashes during my daily commute on the M1 - any biker between that would be in serious trouble.

The heat we are exposed to in an enclosed congested traffic area, from engines of stationary cars, and riders we aren’t even allowed tinted visors! The least, legally we have to wear helmets; I personally ride with all my gear on, even on cool days in full sun it can cause heat stress, we have no way to avoid this.
Stationary traffic can cause carbon monoxide poisoning, at the least will cause drowsiness, and a known carcinogenic, not legalizing filtering, is exposing rider to at the least, two obvious hazards for prolonged periods of time. It should be a simple health and safety risk issue, as it is dangerous unacceptable, and also avoidable.
However it should also come with a campaign to educate drivers to the use of indicators, regardless of if they see other traffic or not, and keep to the left of their lane! Cars also believe filtering is illegal, so it would be imperative to educate people from attempting stop bikes from doing this.
The why should they go first mentality, need’s addressing to show that we as riders face serious hazards that they don’t, and we shouldn’t, and secondary, as a bonus it will ease congestion!
