also yes i used to have a sinski bigboy, wave125, raider150 and a cb400 that i used to ride every day to work. one of the reasons i got rid of it is because sobra dami na dumb MC riders about 90% of them actually and metro manila isn't safe anymore for riding an MC. planning to purchase a buell xb12s in the future but will only use it for week end fun runs and stay away from dumb MC riders.

no car can give me as much fun when i'm riding an MC, but i admit that almost all MC riders don't follow traffic rules. even about 40-50% of big bike owners don't follow traffic rules. that's why pag sumasama ako sa mga fun run dati pinipili ko lang mga kasama ko, usually close friends lang ang kasama ko.
look at the picture again. tell me, in your years of riding and driving, what is the safe distance between vehicles IN STANDSTILL TRAFFIC?

keep in mind that our discussion is revolving around the picture I posted. note the gaps in between cars-- a person can walk with more than enough space in between these spaces.

cars can't go anywhere when stuck in traffic. lane splitting/filtering is acceptable when done in a safe manner. nasa rider na kung tantyado nya ang gap between lanes-- angkop dapat sa laki ng sasakyan nya.

if you didn't mention anything about motorcycle lanes, you would rather motorcycles get in line and occupy the space of a car?
