Ok, what is up with riders passing another rider in same lane? It happened to me on Sheppard Ave. today near Weston.
We're stopped in gridlock traffic so we aren't going anywhere. Guy on a sport bike pulls up right next to me in my lane. I thought he wanted to tell me something, but nope. Traffic starts creeping forward so, since I was originally ahead of this guy, I pull ahead. Next thing, buddy is scorching up my side to claim that elusive spot 10' in front of me. WTF? Good thing I wasn't thinking of moving to the other track in my lane or he would have clipped me from behind. There was absolutely no point to this as the line was only moving 3 or 4 car lengths at a time.
A similar thing happened to me on the 401 where I was passed in my lane by a guy on a sport bike moving about 30 kmh faster than me (I as already doing 110 kph. Fracking dangerous as hell and startled the **** out of me.
Finally, I was entering a controlled parking lot waiting for the gate to rise. As soon it opens, zoom. A rider squeezes past me just as I am rolling off the line.
Riders, sort yourselves out. This kind of behaviour is complete asshattery and is get one of us killed.
