Bike at night with a mobile laser lane
The Best Designs of 2009: LightLane - BusinessWeek: "Bike lanes have proven to be an effective method of protecting cyclists on congested roads, yet they can be prohibitively expensive to install. LightLane provides an alternative. Using a laser, a rider projects a crisply defined virtual bike lane onto the pavement, giving drivers a familiar boundary to avoid. With this wider margin of safety, bikers will regain their confidence to ride at night, making the bicycle a more viable commuting alternative."
Comment -- What a cool gadget! But, I personally would never risk riding a bike at night, regardless of how much protective lighting I had.
