Explanation
Motorcyclists are entitled to the same rights and responsibilities as other roadway users. This includes the right to use a complete traffic lane, just like any other vehicle. Drivers should treat motorcycles with the same respect and caution as they would any other vehicle on the road. This means avoiding lane splitting or passing a motorcycle in the same lane, which is illegal and can be extremely dangerous.
