Just curious to see if any of you out there have been observing any trends that might lead to new motorcycle legislation - for better or worse. I noticed that for 2024 Nebraska surprisingly repealed their motorcycle helmet law making it optional for wear. Definitely raised an eyebrow as they still criminalize lane splitting.

I try to stay on the optimistic side for lane filtering eventually passing here in Virginia but seeing how we are one of only two states where radar detectors are illegal, I think it’s fair to say we may just stay in stasis for a while. Anyone else optimistic or pessimistic on new moto laws for this year?

    Crap, that’s not good. I think Texas has one of the lowest motorcyclists per capita though so I can see how it’d be difficult to advocate for legalization.
