Of course it's not foolproof but it definitely helps other drivers see you. Wear full gear--armored riding jacket and pants, armored gloves, over the ankle boots, blah blah blah. Stay aware to everything around you and you'll be fine. You can't enjoy life to the fullest without taking risks.

i know, its still a debate im having with myself haha.
its not so much the other drivers, as it is the highways. theyre so bad.
im talking, the truck jumps sideways on some of the bumps bad. and its the same on corners, straights, etc. i cant imagine it would be at all enjoyable on a bike taking corners on bumps like that.
