around the holidays the commuters get worse at keeping their line. when I bike commuted I stopped during peak crazy times. when road riding I run bright strobes front & rear regardless of the sunlight or weather. in bright sunlight we disappear in the deep shade of trees especially when cagers are wearing sunglasses. I even added one to my left drop bar as a reminder to a passing car that it's still not clear to move right. this has reduced the close calls noticeably. nothing will stop everyone, but yeah, go for it. the pool noodle might be better tho! ;-)
