Lanes before the motor car - Lake Constance

Constance has still a lot of lanes that are not suitable for fossil fuel powered vehicles. Walking or biking in the narrow lanes or around Lake Constance is very humane.

Visible at night


A new reflective spray is being tested in England which makes bikes and their riders more visible at night. You can spray it on your bike and/or on your clothes. During the day you cannot see it but at night it glows white. Life paint is being developed by a car manufacturer to help prevent cyclists being killed by their cars.
The spray remains visible for a week and can be washed off your clothes.
It may also be of value for pedestrians who want to be visible to cars at night on the footpath.
Sprayed with life paint you can go out on foot or on your bike without wearing special clothes to make car drivers see you.
Keep it next to the front door along with your personal insecticide. One spray for the insects, one for the vehicles.
