The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 1083, seeks to amend section 14-289b of the general statutes to allow motorcycle operators to ride between lanes of traffic. This practice, commonly referred to as "lane splitting," is already permitted in several other states and countries. The intent behind this legislation is to alleviate traffic congestion by providing motorcyclists with the ability to navigate through slower-moving or stopped vehicles.

The bill introduces new legal language that explicitly permits the operation of motorcycles between lanes of traffic, while no specific deletions from current law are noted in the text provided. The overarching goal of the bill is to enhance the efficiency of road use and improve the overall flow of traffic for all vehicles on the road.
