Lane Filtering has continued to expand where it is legal in the United States over the past decade. From just California in 2016, five states made lane filtering legal by the end of 2023. Colorado and Minnesota are joining those states to make lane filtering legal in 2024. With seven states now making lane filtering legal and several more considering it, have we finally hit the point of it no longer being a debate?
There is still much controversy about lane filtering. Advocates claim it reduces traffic and injury benefits, while critics disagree and say it is dangerous and startling to other motorists and more likely to cause accidents.
