Abstract: We continue our research work started in "Kinematic Quantities and Raychaudhuri Equations in a $5D$ Universe" (Eur. Phys. J. C, 2015), and obtain in a covariant form, the equations of motion with respect to the $(1+1+3)$ threading of a $5D$ universe $$. The natural splitting of the tangent bundle of $$ leads us to the study of three categories of geodesics: spatial geodesics, temporal geodesics and vertical geodesics. As an application of the general theory, we introduce and study what we call the $5D$ Robertson-Walker universe.
