Here's our law prohibiting Lane Splitting:
(e) No person shall operate a motorcycle between lanes of moving or stationary vehicles
headed in the same direction, nor shall any person drive a motorcycle abreast of or overtake or
pass another vehicle within the same traffic lane, except that motorcycles may, with the consent of
both drivers, be operated not more than two abreast in a single traffic lane.
It's only in our motorcycle section.
Here's our law that allows vehicles to "share" a traffic lane:
Subd. 4. Passing on the right. The driver of a vehicle may overtake and pass upon the right
of another vehicle only upon the following conditions:
(2) upon a street or highway with unobstructed pavement not occupied by parked vehicles of
sufficient width for two or more lines of moving vehicles in each direction;
Under the passing on the right section. Most every lane allows for "unobstructed pavement not occupied by parked vehicles of sufficient width for two or more lines of moving vehicles in each direction" when one of the vehicles is a bicycle.
The important distinction is that Lane Splitting and Passing on the Right are two different things.
