Fellow Aussie riders,

You may have heard that lane splitting is about to be banned in Australia. Do you know that if this lane splitting ban is passed, you won't even be able to edge past a car turning right or left in front of you without having to fully change lanes? This is bullshit.

This is a rare chance for you to make yourself heard and defend your rights to enjoy your motorcycling.

go to "Australian Road Rules General Amendments and Regulatory Impact Statement"

Don't bother reading the pdf if you don't have the time - just view the "current comments" about lane splitting and add your own (you'll have to register first - just like fireblades.org). Note that your comments won't come up straightaway (mine haven't yet).

Next get every rider you know to add their objections - the more comments the better.
