Rider visibility is one of the biggest concerns facing riders on the road today. Drivers have difficulty seeing motorcycles, especially at night or during rainstorms. Due to their small size, motorcycles can easily hide in blind spots. Drivers involved in serious motorcycle crashes often misjudged how far away a biker was before making a turn or lane change.

Instead of hoping that drivers can see you, it might help to make an extra effort. Consider wearing a jacket with LED lights built into the design.

Jackets featured in the above video offer different colors, different brightness levels and different flashing patterns to customize your jacket for the right situation (a flashing pattern to simulate hazard lights, for example).

Or, for a flashier look, you could install LED lights into the bike itself:

That look is not for every rider, but it could increase the rider’s visibility, especially at night.
