More than once I've had them wave (in a good way) to acknowledge they've seen me. There's defensive riding and then there's proactive defensive riding, I prefer the latter. Yes, it's the responsibility of the driver of that car to see me but the knowledge of that isn't going to help me any in a hospital bed.great idea , i never thought of that .
this would help when people have their flags , teddy bears , beads and cutesy things hanging from the mirror , even the handicapped placards can hide an oncoming motorcycle
