Future motorcycle brake lights

The actual prototype only projects the lanes and not the bicycle symbol. When moving the bike symbol would only be a green, or red streak that would definitely not resemble a bike symbol.

I don't understand why the symbol would be a streak though. If your eyeballs move with the image as you look at it, you would see the image. IMO. If you were behind such vehicle it would be right in front of you and you wouldn't even have to follow it with your eyes . . . right?

Thinking about it a little more you are probably right. Knowing my luck the person behind me would be watching the pretty bike symbol instead of where they were going and run right over me! LOL

That probably is a real danger. Maybe a big punching glove on a actuator arm connected to the brake switch would be useful.
