I was surprised yesterday, saw at least 3 bikes sitting in the traffic on the M4, when it was completely static...wtf! Also last week saw a bike sitting in the inside lane on the A350 into Chippenham, like all the other lemmings queueing...wtf, use the lane of least resistance folks!!! And if that means crossing onto the other carriageway, do it, you've paid your road tax, get your monies worth.

Seen Star Wars, seen the attack on the Death Star, down the trench? That's filtering!

That is one very informative article [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Yeh, the article is good but where was the original source of info gathered from? I've ridden with the police and heard their views or more"what they are required to do". I've already stated my opinion earlier in the post but suffice to say, people will filter at all speeds regardless.People will still speed and jump red lights. People will still drink n'drive and people will still insist on using mobiles!
As a rider you need to weigh the risks.I've seen police bikes filter but within safe limits as shown on Bikesafe and police awareness videos freely available on the net!
Ride safe!

Sort of like the stretchy effect on Star Trek when going to warp speed? ;D

That article is brilliant

It is a good article, but filtering is overtaking, and therefore the same laws apply. The article only mentions two times that you must not filter, but in the Highway Code there are five times you must not filter (overtake). Go have a read... :-?
