    Actually, people in cars in CA (especially LA area) are more accustomed to lane-splitting than you think. You always have assholes everywhere, but on my commute home you would be surprised how many people actually make way for me as I split each day. It actually surprises me still, and I always give a wave or signal of thanks when they go out of their way to let me by. Traffic does suck, but if you were somewhere else you would have people cutting you off, threatening to kill you for lane-splitting, etc.

    All that said....LA sucks, but the women in SoCAL are the hottest and fittest in the US...yeah baby. :bootyshake2:

    I wanna get down there some day too. Maybe next May! Right after I go to Mexico.

    But seriously though. I found lane splitting to be the cat's ass. Seems they almost expect you to split. Cages were always making room for me even if I did not want to split.

    They is some crazy dude down there on a grey VFR who is a maniac when it comes to lane splitting.

    It always surprises me how many people here in LA LA land move to one side when I split lanes, it like all I'm doing is wavin left and right thanks -- it all equals out with all the rest of the bone heads, nimrods and the driving dead out here. 405 is the worst, just ask Scubylongshlorg
