Re: Who else lane splits and is it legal?
I tried to upload the pics here but no luck, anyway, there are plenty here (taken form gopro video)
The resolution is that of the screen shot so the images are not fantastic. http://www.motohouston.com/forums/sh...ight=splitting no legal, but it's my form of protest. |

Re: Who else lane splits and is it legal?
I'd be willing to bet that the majority of those cops in the HOV lane aren't riding two or more to a car, which I know is a perk to being an officer. They aren't going to slow down their commute just to give you a ticket. If there's HOV lane enforcement going on you might not be so lucky with those guys.
I dig the photos from the other forum. Nice to see the reality isn't as horrible as most people imagine.

Re: Who else lane splits and is it legal?
I don't know. I never have been pulled over by one, and I've been pulled over by everything else including a park ranger, for doing a California Stop at a stop sign, but to my defense I was in CA at the time Sequoia Natl Park

Re: Who else lane splits and is it legal?
I've seen Dallas County Constables pull cars over and sit off the road appearing to be running traffic. I halfway suspect they may be on the lookout for someone specific and not really trying to stop speeders, etc.

Probably looking for folk with warrants. That's generally what they do from my understanding.
Then again he could have been just having lunch and trying to look busy lol I notice there are folks on the Houston board who are the "it's dangerous you are gonna die a horrible death" types haha. From a poster over there Quote:

Re: Who else lane splits and is it legal?
Isn't a unicorn just a horny Pegasus?
Are we having too much fun with this?

Pegasus= Unicorn with wings.
That makes a Pegasus like 10 times more ****** than a Unicorn.
