text: ‘New study into effectiveness of hi-viz for cyclists in car traffic’
- by Brendan Gavrin
images: Two photos. One is captioned “Driver’s view of cyclist dressed in black”, the other “Driver’s view of cyclist dressed in hi-viz”. Both depict a phone in front of a steering wheel.
If they didn’t want to get run down by my car, why were they riding on the sidewalk?
I wear hi-vis to give me a chance in the lawsuit. 🫠
Only works if you can survive the f-150 doing 60 in a 25 zone 😌
Surviving is temporary. Being right is forever.
Me walking into the crosswalk seeing the cars with no intent on stopping (state law states they must stop for pedestrians)
Walking into traffic while holding an armed anti-vehicle landmine
Hell yeah! I found my people (I want them to put in my tomb that I was right)
I wear hi-vis just because it’s so cool! 😎
That’s what my LED gear is for - gives me an awesome cyberpunk look at night.
RGB makes you bike faster
Also to reduce cops trying to tell my to ride at 20mph on the sidewalk…
Sidewalk riding is what got me hit by a van in the first place. I’m all healed now.
I thought this was more apple versus android shit again.
I saw a guy typing one handed on his moped yesterday…at speed.
It really annoys me when I see people on bicycles or e-scooters just browsing Twitter or whatever on their phones. At least people looking at their phones in cars have a steel box around them to protect them from their stupidity
Last i saw a racing-biker with about 40km/h… he had such handlebars where he can lean on it to lie almost on his bike… tipping on his smartphone…
I have always the urge to do a loud scream/shout…
😁
