Again, I didn't need to have a LAW to tell me that is wasn't the best idea, but cyclists are a different breed. Their safety mindedness knows no proportion or consideration. I think RidingMatthew said it very well. It simply isn't necessary to attempt to blind, annoy or otherwise discomfit drivers 95% of the time. The other 5%... ... oh well... spit does indeed happen. You weren't going to influence that outcome with your illegal rear facing front flasher, did you think you would?. I'm ready to go whenever that SUV with the distracted driver wants my spot in line. My mother can't find my porn collection cause its on a hard drive and she isn't computer literate.

Edit: WTF? I quote you for planning to be an *** and I quote you again for actually making sense! Where are you coming from, guy? Which side of this are you on?
