Sb 506 - update
SB 506 - the Senate Bill to allow for Lane Splitting in Texas will go in front of the House Committee for Public Safety on Monday the 18th.
I'm planning on going - it starts at 8:00, I'll be there at 7:30. WE NEED YOU. As many as we can get there... and sign in FOR the bill.

Wow, I'm really surprised Corona was able to get it heard. I'll be there.

The Committee came back from open session at about 7:00 and started hearing bills. Of interest were SB1967 and SB506
SB1967 - requires MSF for a class M license, among other things. SB506 - lane sharing. They didn't vote today. But, testimony went well. We spent a few hours in a room with the TMRA - our initial foes on this bill. They said they weren't for it - but wouldn't oppose us. That was a win. Email all the members of the Public Safety Committee in the House http://www.house.state.tx.us/committees/list81/420.htm your wish for SB506 to pass to the floor!! The committee will vote Tuesday.

How was the TMRA to sit down with? Were they reasonable, or still calling y'all "the yuppies"?

Looks like it allows bikes to use HOV lanes also:
