Take Spencer's advice and learn to look driver's directly in their eyes when you can. It helps. Also, don't listen to El Chavo. He generally has no idea what he's talking about when it comes to bikes. Yes! Take Spencer’s advice and learn to look driver’s directly in their eyes when you can. It helps.

It's the only way to guarantee that they know you're there. Just read the other thread and wanted to offer another tip that I didn’t see: make eye contact with drivers!

In addition to saving a bundle on gas, commuting to work on a bike is also a great way to stay in shape. <blockquote>a mountain bike that would rather see dirt</blockquote> Do yourself a favor and buy a road bike or (probably better) a hybrid. You'll get a much better return on your effort with 700cc wheels over 26" wheels. Not a big deal if you only ride occasionally, but definitely worth it if you're going to commute regularly.
