Always be aware of motorcycles on the road or freeways. It is legal for them to "split" traffic.

California laws permit motorcycles to split lanes of traffic, even at high speeds. This means that you need to always be cautious when changing lanes to be sure that a motorcycle is not in between lanes of traffic.
