    You are an L driver on the bike and the sign says No L drivers.

    But everybody does it...

    Exactly why I with a full license won't go near it... too many inexperienced drivers travelling too fast, too close together.

    If I'm going on the motorway I'll go in a car. Unless its jammers, then i'll filter (where nessesary) safely while keeping a close close eye on what the loonies are about to do next.

    Also, the motorways suck on bikes. It's essentially point and shoot riding... boring.

    Perhaps that explains those 160km/h lane splitters... they're asleep.
