LightLane – The Bike Lane That Follows You

All bicyclists adhere to bicycle safety guidelines when riding along busy streets. There are some things that you can control like having a well fitting bike helmet, wearing reflective clothing during a night ride and using hand signals but inevitably, there are some things that are much harder to control such as impatient motorists that drive to close to the curb.

LightLane - The Bike Lane For Road Safety

LightLane is an ingenious gadget that uses lasers to clearly outline a virtual bike lane behind the bicyclist.

This virtual lane defines a lane that motor vehicle drivers can see and will hopefully respect. With the price of gas only increasing, more people will turn to green transportation and biking will be one of them.

We hear everyday of cars colliding with bikes and if products such as LightLane can improve bike safety, it will be a real plus for everyone.

    Awesome! This is something every cyclist should have. It can and will reduce the number of bike accidents. I hope it will be advertised accordingly.

    I just bought turn signals for my bike and in the 1st day using them, it saved my life from a turning car at an intersection I was at.
