Strange, since it really doesn't seem to do that much for visibility:
Even a simple rake will get motorists to give you more space when passing. For some reason, the thought of hitting a living, breathing human dictates a certain amount of effort to avoid it, but if that human has a sharp metal object in his hand, that space goes up by four-fold. Clearly, sharp metal objects are very valuable.
