I would rather not separate myself from cars, definitely want other cars to treat me biking as another car in the road. Another reason why I tend to take the whole lane, otherwise cars will not pass me with the designated 3 ft in between.
I agree, no light will probably save me from a driver too busy texting to looking up. Another unsafe annoyance are super bright headlamps from fellow commuters. Also blinking front lamps not aimed low to the ground. : ( On Tuesday, June 23, 2015 at 8:59:41 AM UTC-4, John wrote: > > In traffic, when it's dark, without reflective clothing, blinkies separate > one out from the cars which have steady rear lights. > > The biggest problem I see on the road, whether driving, riding or walking, > is not drunks, it's distracted drivers on their cell phones. > > Teens to octogenarians too busy talking or texting to notice stopped cars, > people in crosswalks, or cyclists. > > I'm sticking with my rechargeable blinkies, Toplight, and reflective > triangle, and Monkey Lectric Monkeylights. > > Annoying is better than dead. > > John > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
