That's certainly a thoughtful application of the camera and computer technology.  Its incorporation in an adaptive cruise control would be great.  I'd like it to warn of potential rear-ender collisions also since we're all a bit limited in our rear awareness.  I don't always remember to monitor the car closing in from behind at traffic lights.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
