(2) There are two or more lanes of traffic for vehicles proceeding in the same direction at that time; and |
(3) A reasonable and prudent operator of a motorcycle would consider it safe to operate a motorcycle no more than ten miles per hour over the average speed of traffic at that time between the lanes of traffic. |
