Bob,
    
    I was riding a big Honda ( 650 Super Sport ) and was
still run over on an otherwise empty road by a deadbeat
with no insurance who swore he never saw me.  How he could
miss something that big, with a headlight on in broad
daylight I will leave to your imagination...
    But given the level of expertise required to obtain a
driver's license, and the general level of alertness....
not to mention Soccer Moms in SUVs with cellphones on their
ears.....

YOU will be a moving target.
