Then why not ban all flashing lights? On police cars, fire trucks, stop lights, RR crossings…
Really?
I’m going to retain my flashing light on my bike. The very fact that people are pissing and moaning about it tells me that it’s working. People are seeing me. As to the whole distance thing, if you are having trouble with judging distances perhaps you should slow down and become the master of your vehicle and, while you’re at it, of yourself. If that’s too hard for drivers then perhaps they should turn in their licenses.
As to the brightness; you can’t tell me that the little light, even a bright one, can compete with some of the xenon powerhouses that are on cars nowadays, flashing or not.
