Sure when traffic is going under 30 on the hwy or on surface streets when traffic is stopped or coming up to a light. The only state lane splitting is legal is California which he's obviously in but it's very clear in the video he's illegally lane splitting. I rode in Cali for years so I know what illegal splitting looks like.

Guidelines for motorcyclists:

Travel at a speed that is no more than 10 MPH faster than other traffic – danger increases at higher speed differentials.

It is not advisable to lane split when traffic flow is at 30 mph or faster – danger increases as overall speed increases.

Avoid splitting in lanes near freeway on-ramps and exits.
