With the automatic signaling, a Roadwarez app user can input their destination and ride using the GPS . The right left and stop signals will automatically engage. Completely hands free. The cyclist does not need to take his hands off the handle bars.
The super quality LED lights, visible both day and night, are bright and clear to be completely visible to traffic.
There are no other lighted products on the market that have technology with automatic signaling.
In addition to making sure you are visible to other vehicles, here are a few other ways to stay safe on the road:
Check Your Gear and the Weather Before You Head Out
Is your bike seat at the right height? Are the tires properly inflated? Make sure that your gear is in good order before you head out on the road! Do a regular check of your brake lines and make sure that all the bolts are tight and safe.
Beyond your bike, you need to make sure you’re equipped for the weather. Do yourself a favor and check the forecast before you head out: a little spitting rain is no big deal but a full blown snow storm? It might be better to leave the two wheels at home! Riding gloves in colder weather are a great way to ensure that you don’t lose control or find yourself having trouble braking because of cold fingers. Rain jackets, splash pants and the right shoes that won’t slip off the pedals are all important pieces of equipment.
Plan Your Route
Look for roads with bike lanes or areas with bike paths, so that you can get to your destination with less interactions with cars and more communing with nature! You can also avoid roads that are under construction, not paved or otherwise in hazardous conditions. There’s nothing like a series of huge potholes to put a dent in your ride!
Always Protect Your Head
Laws vary from state to state about the requirement to wear a helmet, but you shouldn’t need a law to tell you that your head is vulnerable to injury, in the event of an accident. Even a minor tumble can cause damage, so no matter how old you are, always wear a helmet.
Ride In Pairs, or More!
There is safety in numbers, particularly if you want to be visible to cars and to make sure that they give you the space you need on the shared roadways. If you ride in pairs, you’re more likely to be seen and if anything does happen, you won’t be on your own. You can also be alert to let one another know about any road hazards up ahead.
Follow the Law and Ride Predictably
A car outweighs you by a ton and a half or more, so while an accident with one might not be your fault, you could definitely be on the losing end in terms of injuries. With that in mind, you need to ride defensively, observing all traffic laws. Check your local and state laws online, so you can be sure of what you can and can’t do.
Be predictable and in control as you ride, so that a driver doesn’t have to wonder what you’re going to do next. Be ready to yield, even if you technically have the right of way. Controlling your speed will help you with that! If you need to carry items with you, a backpack—like the RoadwareZ models—or riding panniers are a good way to make sure that you keep your hands on the handlebars!
