It was obvious that the cage tried to cross over the yellow, so it's a case closed.
As long as the lane splitter didn't cross over the double yellow or weaving in and out, he's pretty much clear. IN THIS CASE. Usually, even though lane splitting is legal in California, if there's a collision, it's pretty much the rider's fault because he "doesn't" have to split lane and if he were and got into a crash then it's no longer "reasonable and prudent".
