Pivoting to a cycling question: what's the legality of pedaling alongside a line of stopped cars (this is lane splitting/filtering, yes?) waiting for a light when there's no bike box at the intersection and no bike lane alongside? I'm pretty sure that's a "no", but I've seen it done often enough to wonder.
It isn't technically legal here (it is in the UK and in California, possibly other places). But it's certainly common here for various reasons.
When there is a paved shoulder, this is a grey area, given that bikes are allowed to use the shoulder, and the shoulder is not the lane, I'd say there's no defined legality here.
When there is a bike lane it is obviously completely legal.
Drivers rarely make a distinction.
Do you have a reference for this? I've never been able to find a section of the HTA that answers the question definitively.
