Just do it sensibly and you should be fine
If they tried that I'd take them to court. They can only get you once for each law you break. They could still hit you for 3 or 4 laws though.Quote:

But you would still have to indicate if you crossed lanes, a bit messy if your talking about riding in the city during the week!
it will remain a grey area until they put out a specific set of rules for it.
until then..just do it( but ride safe)
very very nice find.Quote:

SO that means...if the car is stationary, you can pass it via the left hand side of the car, right?
But wat if it's down the middle between 2 cars? ull b going left of one car and right of the other...
You really have two speed camera's with in 100m of each other? I still doubt they could fine you for both.Quote:

If the actual "act" is commited on separate occasions with a pause/break in between, that could be classified as two separate incidences which can have two fines given.
Eg. If you were to say be speeding on a long stretch of road and happen to get LIDAR'd and a speeding photo taken at the same time, you may have a leg to stand on. You could prove this with the ticket showing the location, date and time of the fine which matches to the speed camera.
MP- I dont think that RTA rule covers lane splitting, it says that if a car is stationary and turning right, then you can pass on the left as long as there is sufficient space.
if you have a good lawyer than you could get away with a lot of things :P i have never seen anyone get in trouble for it and i only do it when its really busy other wise i just usually sit and wait.
