Lanesplitting is a grey area in Australia, but I've never seen this much space between cars as is given here. Did they know a motorcycle was coming throguh or something?

[code3paris]

@auaaron11 It's illegal in France but "tolerated" so yes, the cars were already expecting lots of motorcycles to come flying through. They do it all the time. Otherwise they sit in traffic like the cars.

it's not the police but the gendarmerie :)

[code3paris]

@call17police La gendarmerie is a police force with military status with its budget under the Departement of Defense. It is the French Military Police.

Very nice catch. Too bad it seems cut short.

[code3paris]

@Francesc2000 I agree, it is too short. Unfortunately my battery died as I was filming. That was all I could get. Sorry!

@thewolfmanx you live on the wrong continent, in Holland they even let me infront of traffic lights it's brilliant.

[ondaquadra]

@call17police police is english name of gendarmerie

@alphaman1101 We have them, it's called SWAT. They come at 3am and knock your door down, shoot your dog and terrorize you and your children. And they sometimes attack the wrong house. We commonly call them "jack-booted thugs"

@qlder I wish they were in the us as well

@thewolfmanx Neither in France...

[thewolfmanx]

pretty sure motorcycles arent legally allowed to go between cars in australia:)

[qlder]

If only drivers in Australia were that courteous - to allow motorbikes through the middle in heavy traffic!
