Lane Filtering [Completed]
April 2017 – the South Australian government legalised the safe practice of lane filtering on SA public roads for motorcyclists in stopped or slow moving traffic at speeds of 30kph or below for R and R Date class licensed classed riders (providing the rider is not required to display an L or P Plate).
Under current law, it is illegal for a rider in S.A. to undertake filtering in stopped or slow moving traffic travelling below 30km/h despite it being shown to be up to 6 times safer for the rider, whilst also reducing queuing and decreasing travel time for other motorists.
