After waiting for them to make the roads safe and comfortable for people biking.... We need to do it ourselves.
Solution: An accessory making bikes so conspicuous that motorists will automatically give us enough room to be safe and comfortable.People driving cars don't want to scare or hit cyclists. But bikes are narrow, unexpected and hard to see.
So now we enlarge the bike's profile by making it wider and brighter, day and night. This reduces crashes, scary encounters and driver impatience by making it easy for drivers to detect, recognize and assess the bike's motion.
First time, ever.
Motorist view: From behind, amber lights extending on both sides make it clear that drivers should follow at a safe distance, until it is safe to pass in another lane. From ahead, two white lights fill the bike's lane, so drivers treat the bike like an oncoming car.
Cyclist view: Turn on your lights, day or night. Drive your bike down your road, taking the entire lane. You find a new sense of cooperation with people driving cars. (Rarely, when a distracted motorist needs to be warned, you sound your car horn.)
Lights are conspicuous, but not blinding. No flashing, so people can judge distance, and won't be confused or disoriented by infrequent or bright flashes. Based on technology proved effective on motor vehicles.
Unprecedented on bikes: Conspicuous daytime running lights. Lights meet motor vehicle brightness, position and reliability standards. Car horn. Headlights behind biker.
