Yep it is. In fact the troopers preferr that because then it's safer for the motorcyclists to be in one lane instead of all over the road where they're outnumbered by much heavier vehicles.

As a number of the others have suggested, it really is in straightforward words tolerated in California. even if, i think obligated to make sparkling that it really is not criminal to split lanes, there merely isn't a regulation adverse to it (in CA). The California street Patrol has lane splitting regulations (that are literally not regulation). often, you could chop up lanes in a secure and prudent way, not exceed the speed reduce, bypass swifter than 10mph than the encompassing site visitors. if you're doing it in a genuine looking, non-wreckless way, law enforcement officials in CA received't care (i have yet to be pulled over). yet when you're being a chance to your self or others, you'll likely get busted for unsuitable lane substitute and inspite of else the cop can imagine of. in my opinion, after I chop up lanes I actual have a reduce; at the same time as site visitors is going 40+ on the throughway, I fall lower back in line.

Car pool lanes require 2 or more people to occupy the vehicle. To my knowledge that is the only requirement to drive in the car pool lane. The type of motor vehicle is unimportant other than it has to be a legal licensed motor vehicle. That is true in most state, I know of no exceptions.

I know it is in California. Hold on...
Yes it is. HOV lanes are identified by diamond-shaped pavement markings and overhead signs located on Interstates 20, 75 and 85. They are designated only for vehicles carrying two or more occupants, certified alternative fuel vehicles, motorcycles and emergency vehicles.

Federal law states that motorcycles are allowed to use HOV lanes anywhere regardless of number of passengers.
