I was riding on the freeway last week and had a motorcyclist pass me on the right in my own lane! This was quite startling for me, as I was considering weaving to the right just before I saw him out of the corner of my eye.
Now, I admit I'm new to the motorcycling world so all the customs and practices are not known to me. But passing another rider in his own lane seems pretty dangerous to me.
My question would be... is this normal? Don't warn the rider in any way just pass them if they don't seem to be going fast enough and are in the other third of the lane you aren't in? Anyone else have this happen to them?
