As cities grow increasingly more congested, local legislators keep trying new ways to improve the situation for residents. Some seem to completely disregard the safety and convenience of riders of two-wheeled vehicles, like Paris' recent ring road speed reduction to 50 km/h (about 31 mph), which carries an added consequence of axing lane filtering for motorcyclists and scooterists.
There, riders and drivers alike haven't been pleased with this plan, and staged a protest to make their displeasure known last weekend.
But that's France, where lane filtering was tolerated. What about Chicago, where as far as the local laws are concerned, lane filtering isn't a thing that's allowed?
