New to riding in MA and so I have a question:
What do you all do to keep from going crazy in traffic?
No lane splitting?!!?
I feel like an idiot just sitting there behind a stopped car on the highway (mostly because I've never had to - it just feels wrong).
Isn't it more dangerous for me to be stopped behind a bunch of cars than moving through them? I've been rear-ended a couple times like that before on the highway (thankfully not while riding), and I'm sure it would hurt a lot more on a bike.
Is it because lanes are so much smaller out here? It still seems to me like there is plenty of room (in fact I did it for a couple days until somebody warned me I would get fined PER car I passed if caught).
Someone enlighten me please.
