Lane Splitting is Legal in California. From the CHP Guidelines: 1  Lane splitting by motorcycles is not illegal in California when done in a safe and prudent manner.  Motorists should not take it upon themselves to discourage motorcyclists from lane splitting.
While most states do not recognize lane splitting as a legal maneuver, they also do not specifically prohibit it. However, police and the courts often interpret lane splitting as unlawful. One state, California, does specifically permit lane splitting, but only if it is done in a safe and prudent manner. Of course, the definition of safe and prudent is very much up to interpretation by police officers and judges.
