There are some hotdogs out there driving motorcycles but like someone else said the motorcycle rider usually is not at fault. I see some of the newer bikes have a flashing headlight that is very hard to miss, great idea.

You can retrofit most motorcycles with the modulated head light. It works with the high beam switch. During the day if you press the high beam switch the headlight modulates but at night it goes back to high beam. Yes good idea because they are hard to miss.
