Any innovation benefiting cyclists and coming from the auto industry is a way to move attention away from the fact that cars are the most dangerous thing on the road.
Well, obviously. What else did you expect to be the most dangerous thing on roads? Sharks?

#573This seems to be part of a type of brand marketing where a brand claims it has invented something, but the only thing that ever exists of significant economic value is the attention raised by the promo video / article. Not the thing/service. Examples: - Samsung safety truck https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GNGfse9ZK8 - Citroën motion sickness glasses https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aco63dlq_WE - Amazon Prime Air http…
Student cyclists that ignore the rules and wear ANC (or even large headphones) should be fined more often.

#577That will eliminate the bulk of traffic “accidents” involving bicycle and pedestrian; it’s expected and common to do this in the Netherlands.

#578Was mowing the lawns the other day and could still hear the high pitched tones it emits even with noise cancelling headphones on.
Situation is pretty lame because I liked the foxes sleeping in the garden, super fun to take photos of them and they don't do much harm.

Jokes on them for the wasted resources. If they don’t intend to market, I hope someone will. Where I live cyclists use ANC headphones all the time, and I’m tired of the near misses. Student cyclists that ignore the rules and wear ANC (or even large headphones) should be fined more often.

> I bought a 12v car horn yesterday with the intent of wiring it into my ebike's power supply Putting an aerosol fog horn (available from boating supply shops) in the bikes water bottle holder is much simpler, louder and more effective.
And where does your water bottle go then?
