My girlfriend was riding with me on my motorcycle the other day, and she freaked out when I passed a car in the same lane as me. She says it’s illegal to do that in Kansas—is she right?

Your girlfriend is absolutely right—lane splitting is illegal in Kansas. In fact, the only state that currently allows lane splitting is California, so if you’re not in the Sunshine State, avoid tickets and fines by following the same protocols for passing as you would in a car.
