It's bicycle stuff, but might be of interest to those here.

I should buy some. They would be good on my pushbike when I ride it drunk.

Haha - "I rode in the middle of the lane the whole time officer, what makes you think I've been drinking?"

:lol: They would be terrible. Bicycling is like motorcycling - you shouldn't be looking down at the ground, and these will encourage riders to do just that.
Not to mention you are only allowed white forward facing lights on the public road.

Interesting. But probably not legal.
'Specially if they're the reasonably heavy duty items you'd need in broad daylight.
And now that I look again; the bike is parked nicely in the shadow of some trees...

Most riders/drivers have enough keeping inside the yellow and white lines now !

Not only do they add to your visibility at night, they also create a safe space around your bicycle that most drivers and other riders will subconsciously stay clear of.
That is utter bollocks. The only thing they will create is an illusion.

What about a fecking high powered laser line across the rear that vaporises the radiators of cunt tail gaters?
