I like it... but personally as a driver I'm often confused by emergency vehicle sirens -" where's that coming from" - so I'm not sure what the affect of loads of these might be(?)

I'd buy one if it projected the image of a 3 ton truck/ rhino .

Oh.

I thought that was going to be some sort of artificially intelligent, super-powered, bike-mounted laser-cannon for vaporising idiot drivers in their idiot cars.

Oh well, never mind.

hard for the driver to see i think!

if you are beside the car, it will be just infront of thier wing, which isnt that obvious, anywhere behind that, and they just cant see it!

surely?

How about just using decent lights and not riding like a male chicken? Far more effective, IMO
