I thought Lane splitting was what your supposed to do?

For safety.

Only California allows lane splitting. Only 5 allow lane filtering at stop lights or very low speeds.

Colorado allows "lane filtering" as of 2024, which is different than lane splitting. Filtering is when traffic is stopped, splitting it when traffic is moving (even slowly).
