Is lane splitting legal in Missouri? Can lane splitting affect my motorcycle crash claim?


No, lane splitting (riding between two lanes of traffic) is not legally allowed in the state of Missouri. If you were lane splitting before a motorcycle collision, you may be considered partly at fault for the crash.

Partial fault from lane splitting does not bar you from filing an injury claim, but it could affect how much compensation you receive because of Missouri’s pure comparative fault rule.
