I don't think you are allowed to use them. I agree that there seems to be a lot of resistance to saving fuel and cutting congestion with motorcycles since I am from the UK where filtering (lane splitting) is legal precisely because it reduces congestion and emissions.
However we live in New Zealand which is a country for cars. Cars always come first, cars are best, cars have priority, even if you get a driving ban you can apply to drive to work. Back in the UK if you lose your licence and then lose your job because you liost your licence well tough titty. Which is the way it should be.
This is one of the few countries where car hits pedestrian and its the pedestrian's fault.
You will never change that culture it has become too embedded in the national psyche.
In space, no one can smell your fart.
