I wear "all of the gear all of the time". Most motorcycle gear is partially or all black. In order to be protective, it has to have solid patches or armor at high risk abrasion points. If I'm not moving, air isn't blowing through my suit vents. If I'm stuck in rush hour gridlock, there's no trees or shade over the QEW. My black armor becomes a sweatbox, sucking up all of the sun, cooking me alive. I can't just turn on a fan or AC, the wind is my fan. I can't easily risk just take a cool sip of water unless I'm wearing a hydro bladder; you think impatient cars will let riders deglove and take their helmet off for a drink when suddenly traffic moves and there's a chance to pull up a whole 12 feet? I've had heat stroke from "waiting like I'm supposed to", staring down the empty space between the lanes, heat shimmering off the asphalt, exhaust fumes choking my lungs, every movement risking getting rear ended by a driver only half paying attention. I don't want to blast 80kph past everyone. I want go safely, carefully, slowly maneuver between all the single occupant SUVs and free up both highway congestion (by removing myself from it) and the needless risks to my safety (by making me sit in it). Please.

The amount of people on their phones while driving is insane. And that number seems to rise when they get stuck in traffic and get bored sitting there. I’d rather safely filter through traffic than sit there waiting to get hit from behind. Lane splitting has already proven to make a significant difference across the states and in Europe. And with the rising motorcycle fatality rate rising in Ontario each year. Something like this should be done to increase our chances at making it home to our families.
