I have lost too many friends to distracted drivers. The pain of these losses is unbearable, and it's time we take action to prevent more tragedies. As a motorcyclist in Florida, I am personally calling for the legalization of lane splitting - a practice that could save lives by allowing us to stay ahead of traffic and away from cars.

Lane splitting is currently legal in California and has been shown to reduce rear-end collisions involving motorcycles by 30% according to a study conducted by UC Berkeley. It's not just about convenience; it's about safety. By staying ahead of traffic, motorcyclists can avoid being caught up in dangerous situations caused by distracted or negligent drivers.

However, despite these clear benefits, lane splitting remains illegal in Florida. This puts motorcyclists at risk every day on our roads. We need our lawmakers to recognize this issue and make the necessary changes.

We are asking for your support so that we can bring this matter before the Florida Legislature. Together we can make our roads safer for everyone who uses them – especially those on two wheels who are most vulnerable.

Please sign this petition today and help us legalize lane splitting for motorcyclists in Florida!
