Three groups of people and none of them can hear my bell ringing and I rang several times. As I got closer, I yelled out "Excuse me". No response. I keep on yelling "excuse me" until I'm almost breathing down their necks - that's when they finally take notice.

After passing the first group I have to repeat it all over again with the second group just a few steps further ahead. One of the guys was so oblivious to my bells and yells he actually walked into my path.

And then a third time.

And I always thought the clanging my u-lock makes against the rear rack would attract attention.

Maybe I will get an AirZounds.
