OK so I hit my 3rd pedestrian in like 2 months while messeging, I'm finally sick of ******* in NY darting across the street without looking. I finally gave in and bought one of those police horns for my bike even though I never liked them. I cant believe how great this thing is. My biggest thing was approaching an interesction, especially in midtown where everyone just rushes across the streets to beat the lights. its awsome in traffic, cuts through all th noise and gets the attention of those morons on the big rigs. I already avoided several close calls. Just thought i'd sing the praises of this thing since NYC has had so many bad bike accidents this summer and this could seriously save a few cyclists from alot of hurt.
