Motorcycle lane splitting in Virginia is illegal. Many people think the practice is dangerous; others believe it makes highways safer for motorcyclists. Virginia House Bill 1236 would allow the operator of a two-wheeled motorcycle to pass another vehicle that is stopped or traveling at no more than 10 miles an hour between two lanes of traffic.
Aggressive Driving in Virginia
Aggressive driving can be seen every day somewhere in Virginia, but few of us call it aggressive driving. We might call it dangerous, stupid, reckless, or childish. The colloquial designation is “road rage.”
Under Virginia Law, aggressive driving is distinguished from reckless driving. The basis of the distinction is the intention of the driver’s actions. Aggressive driving is any behavior that is intended to “harass, intimidate, injure, or obstruct” other drivers. The same behavior may be considered reckless driving without this intent.
