I rode motorcycles for many years, and people rarely looked for me then. I've used 2 different Magicshines with either a 200ish lumen helemt light or a Hivis360 helmet light for the past few years, and people have mentioned they thought I was a motorcycle on several occasions. It seems to me that the amount of light combined with the lights flashing in the daylight confuse people enough to get them to pay more attention to me - and that's fine by me.
