State Delegate Tony Wilt (R-26th) has introduced a bill that would allow lane filtering in Virginia under certain conditions. H.B. 1236 allows a motorcyclist to move between traffic that is stopped or moving at 10 mph or slower as long as the motorcyclist is on a road with two or more lanes in each direction, the motorcyclist does not exceed 20 mph while filtering, and the maneuver can be performed safely.
Wilt's H.B. 1236 has bill has been referred to the Committee on Transportation Subcommittee on Motor Vehicles.
This is the first time a lane filtering bill has been introduced in Virginia, so it is critical for legislators to hear from motorcyclists about the practice and why it makes riding safer and reduces congestion for other road users.
If you live in Virginia send your state delegate a message urging them to supporting H.B. 1236!
