Lane splitting is when a motorcyclist drives between two lanes of stopped or slow-moving cars. While it’s not illegal in some states, this behavior is against the law in Florida. If an accident happens when a motorcycle is lane splitting, the operator is likely to be held liable for the collision. In Florida, the victim of an accident gets compensated to the extent that their negligence didn’t contribute to an accident. But if a motorcyclist is at fault, it’s going to be difficult to recover compensation. The only exception is if the motorcyclist can show the other driver contributed to the accident through carelessness (such as texting while driving).
