WTF is wrong with people dressing in black for cycling in traffic?? Don't these idiots understand that maximum visibility is your ticket to staying alive or not!

When people wear dark colors ,or worse yet black, they make themselves invisible to traffic around them so that some hapless drive can mow them down 'cause the idiot biker wore a dark/black color making them impossible to see in all the background movement and colors. Yellow, lime green ,or hell, even bright red is much much safer for riding in traffic.

But you can't tell these idiots that............
