Reflecting My Ride

I love this idea.

After being the witness of the aftermath of a big wheel pickup truck running over a bicyclist at night,

this is something I would buy instantly for any of my

Grandchildren.

And when it comes available in the

United States,

my

Grandchildren

will be getting this practical present someday on

Christmas,

instead of the usual toy they play with for ten minutes,
then never look at again.

I was once involved in a project,

as a
Technical Advisor,

where a motorcyclist would have a blue-tooth connection to his brake

and turn-signal light system,

where neon-lights would blink synchronized to the bike on a leather jacket.

Bringing more visibility to drivers behind the motorcyclist.

But the the guy with the idea couldn't get any backing because it turns out he is a flake.

I wasn't going to invest my money when I couldn't trust the inventor.

Patent is pending.

Sorry.

What I really like about this new product is,

the fact that it is a washable spray on product which is only reflective to a driver of a vehicle when their headlights are pointing at the cyclist!

Reflecting light back to the driver,

way ahead of time.

The Volvo Life Paint Makes Bikes and Helmets Much More Visible

by Meghan Young for TrendHunter.com

"Volvo has created Life Paint in order to help increase cyclist safety on the road. A natural concern of motorists, Life Paint addresses the fact that many drivers don't see bikes on the road until its too late. When spray painted on the surface of both the bike and helmet, it turns both into large reflectors. Cyclists who are afraid of the damage Life Paint might do to their frames, it's not only transparent, but washes off as well. Volvo will currently be selling Life Paint in the United Kingdom, but it's a product that will catch on quite quickly in other parts of the world."

 

Of course,

there are critics to

Life Paint.

So,

you will have to do the research for yourself

and decide for yourself.

But for me,

I am all for it.

Thanks for reading. 

P.S. I have checked two online ordering platforms

and one has a competitor selling a reflective paint.

I don't know if it is washable though?
