Cyclists should travel with the direction of traffic when riding on the road. Modern LED lights are small enough to have them on at all times to make yourself more visible to traffic. Always wear a helmet, despite sweaty helmet hair.Hi. I'm just inquiring about cycling and road safety.
Should cyclists travel against traffic? This would allow cyclists to see oncoming cars. They'd have a better chance of dodging any close vehicles. Any collision with a fast car, whether from behind or head-on, would be very dangerous. So we must choose the optimal one for avoiding the collision in the first place, rather than slightly reducing the impact of a potential collision.
Many cyclcists have mini (go-pro) cameras to record the misdeeds of cars for evidence in accidents.
