Good call, a fully blacked out Mog is often 'overlooked' by other road users and some shiny bits to catch their attention is good for your own safety, we've all heard the other drivers quote..."sorry mate, never saw you"

I would have tended to agree with you, and I was always (within reason) an advocate for 'loud pipes saves lives' when on a motorbike. However, whether it's the silly season or just the tourists on our local roads, we have had a few near misses of late in Sue's 'must be invisible' car. On two occasions they were looking directly at us as they pulled out of a side junction, forcing us to take evasive action with no recognition on their part or apology for their error. I do wonder whether recreational drugs are influencing driving behavior these days. So I'm not sure a few shinny bits (with the exception of attracting magpies ) will make that much difference in the vehicle recognition spectrum these days.
