So... time warner and showtime/cbs had a fight and i couldnt watch dexter and ray donovan last night. RUBBISH!!!

Want a recap? I watched it last night. :p

speaking of whats on last night, anyone watch that joke of a fake ass documentary on "megaladon" to start off shark week...

not only was it clearly fake as hell (every pic and video was magically really blurry, despite more than half being from the last year or 2), it was incredibly hard to believe, but what really pissed me off was that they kept passing it on the entire 2 hour show as real actual occurances, dates etc etc...

didnt know Discovery was going the way of fake ass bulls*** shows like History

Saw the commercials for it but now I'm glad I skipped it. But when is the Snuffy the Seal special going to air? bwahahahahahahaha

Think about it this way, if a bike moves to lane split, thats one more space you can move up & you'll reach your destination that much faster. One less car thats stuck in the traffic with you. Now imagine if you're in an area that has a large population of bikes in a high traffic area.

If you're parked at a dead stop behind another car what is you're escape route supposed to be if a car rearends you?




Keep this in mind, another study in that video also mentioned that if just 10% of a population were to switch from cars to bikes, 40% of traffic congestion would disappear.

Also keep in mind that most countries outside of the US including the majority of european countries allow the practice of lane splitting, otherwise known as "filtering".

Another side effect is most bikes don't have any form of climate control so splitting can be nice on those 80*+ days, 15mph of airflow can make a heck of a difference.

I'll admit it does aggravate me a bit when bikers 'filter' while I'm stuck in traffic but I get why they do and resist the urge to fling a door open. On the other hand when they do the s*** while traffic is flowing it irritates the hell out of me. If two lanes of traffic are moving 60 in a 55 why do you* feel the need to split lanes?

*you loosely meaning the operator of the two wheeled vehicle that is actually performing this idiotic move and not to be directed at any particular individual here.

Hmmm. I could use it to replace the snow tire I still have on the car :)
