Saw an intelligent bicyclist today
He was wearing one of those bright orange hunting vests and you couldn't
miss seeing him. Why don't they all do that or at least paint their helmet hunter orange? |

My wife made me a waterproof-breathable blaze orange cover for my helmet. Not only increases visibility, but also keeps me warm in the cold and dry in the rain. I ride a rail-trail through hunting areas. -- ------------------------------------------------------- "Every day is Saturday when you're retired." Bob Burns Mill Hall PA (email is a spamtrap) |

If you have trouble seeing ordinary (non-orange) cyclists or pedestrians in plenty of time, you're not driving responsibly. Try slowing down and paying more attention. - Frank Krygowski |

(snort) If it didn't seem like the vast majority of cyclists that I see had death wishes (in addition to the above, I actually saw a cyclist at least slow down - not stop, just slow - for a stop sign the other day. It was noteworthy because that was the first time I'd seen that happen in months,) you might have a point, but my general impression of them is that they are serious hazards to themselves and others, and I wish that police would take more notice of this and start enforcing the rules of the road. It is only a matter of time before one of these idiots ends up getting flattened by a car, and I'm sad to say that my sympathy will be with the driver of the car. nate |

By making yourself more visible, a you put yourself on a better part of your curve, so it is less likely that you will have a problem with a drivers on the bad part of their curve. |

I don't disagree with that. And if a cyclist chooses to be extra- visible, I certainly won't object. However, as long as the cyclist is legal, he has no obligation to dress funny so motorists can exert less care. Lights and reflectors at night? Sure. Day-glo orange when riding to work? No. It's the driver's responsibility to see where he's going, see who or what is on the road, and control his vehicle accordingly. - Frank Krygowski |
