Now if you could make a version that works while you are riding in the street, you might get some respect from drivers.

haha brilliant idea and while we do that, YOU could start designing some share-the-road yellow stickers that would have a little stick figure riding a bike, like he normally does, except this time, have him shoot out balls out of a bike-mounted cannon in the front, then on the bottom, have the caption read: "Share the road... or else..."
