Which means a safer ride for you. I'm still having problems with drivers judging my speed. When traffic is light I will cruise at 20 - 24 MPH and I've had a few drivers pull out of side streets and driveways while looking right at me and I had to hit the brakes. Jaywalkers are bad too, they can't be bothered to judge the speed of an oncoming bicycle. What we need is a cloaking device that makes us look like a huge dump truck or something.
