They can hate all they want as long as they don't hit me. Or take unnecessary risks of hitting me.

I know that you're being ironic, but I've abandoned the idea of trying to manipulate drivers with whatever facade I present. The dangerous ones are all on the fringe somehow so they're all set off by something different.

When I do wear a helmet it's not from fear of collisions with vehicles. It's hitting the rock or curb, or something else that I couldn't anticipate or avoid.
