That is a start... Now if you could make that send a text message to the Car behind you that says.. "Look Up and See that Bike in Front of You" you would have a real gadget !!!

I hope it works for you but IMO if they are not looking or paying attention in the first place I doubt it will help.

The best way to keep from getting rear ended when you get about 500 feet from the intersection weave in the entire lane line to line before you stop, you will look stupid but you won't get run over...
