Not necessarily. California allows lane splitting and they have a lower vehicle (and specifically motorcycle) fatality rate than most other states. A few others allow lane filtering (which is what this technically was since all the vehicles were stopped). It’s extra impressive given the number of tourists on the road who come from places where lane splitting isn’t legal and therefore aren’t used to it.
