[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's really hard for drivers to see you, even if you have a headlight on your bike and a little reflector on your helmet. That just isn't enough. You need something much brighter like a reflective vest. I hate driving this time of year when the sun goes down so early because bicyclists just seem to pop out of nowhere. It is an accident waiting to happen. [/quote]

It's really hard for drivers to see anything but another car their own size with their taillights on, when most of their attention is on their phone.
[/quote]Sounds like biking on the road with cars is dangerous. I guess I won't do it then.[/quote]

Doing anything on the road with cars is dangerous, including driving a car.[/quote]How about I be personally responsible for my safety and you do the same. [/quote]

Wouldn't shooting you preemptively be ok under the scheme?  It's just protecting myself.  If you really care you'll wear body armor to be responsible for your own safety.[/quote]
All people are saying is please wear a protective vest for your safety and everyone’s well being. How you go from refusing to wear a vest to arguing that you can shoot people preemptively I am not sure but it really shows how extreme your views are.[/quote]

A bulletproof vest is really just for your safety. I'm not sure why you'd argue against it.[/quote]
