Default For you bikers...

I've noticed, at least in Auckland, that very few motorcycles filter during rush hour...

...you can't get any demerit points for it can you??!

I have not seen anything to say filtering is any different to overtaking same as UK.

Looks as though Kiwi's call filtering 'Lane Splitting' and if done slowly and safely is treated same as UK... Apart from which it is one of the main reasons I ride bikes...

When I'm on the northern motorway theres a constant stream of bikes filtering
between the long rows of static cars. Be careful though I see a lot of rapid lane
changes from idiot kiwi drivers who dont indicate.
