There are products on the market that sends out a laser beam of light onto the road with a line, arrows, or circles on both sides of the bike to mark the path for a car to stay out of. I've never seen these lights in real life yet so I can't tell you how effective it is though. But if anything it's cool looking. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baIENfHxCc8 But I would be concerned with battery life, but also watch closely and the red lines sometimes wash out.

This is kind of cool too but expensive and not really effective to see by but it is seemingly very noticeable: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMdsH...eature=related
