This is pretty neat. This is a clear paint that you can't see during the day, but lights up at night time when car head lights hit it.

Irony.

Most crashes happen during the hours of daylight.

Just sayin.

Was the invention of headlights pointless as well?

Is that taking into account the different volumes of traffic at night or raw?

I tried to find a vendor willing to send here but have up after a fruitless search.

Not to avoid the bin but because a good amount of my riding is in the country after dark. I kind of figure in a good single vehicle accident I might not be found to at least daylight of my lights went out.

Worse I might be strick before I was seen of spayed out on the road.

Best thing you can do is a decent set of see-me lights. The more vertical and horizontal separation from the headlight the better.

It both makes you more visible, and easier for someone who sees you to judge your oncoming speed.

Google "looming effect", "motion camouflage " etc.

Aye. I have led bars for that. I was alluding to the what if I Cock up on a country road at night.
Post accident lights that were on during impact are less likely to work.
Lying in the middle of the road with no lights even a fluro vest makes pretty good camouflage these days. I must pass 5 of then on the way to work. Just more litter on the road.

This stuff is dangerous.

It will lull drivers into a false sense of security and they'll miss the rider that their headlights don't touch until it's too late.
