In these parts people follow close on the freeways.
From this I see this; simply letting off the throttle at slower speeds 45mph less, engine braking slows me enough that people creep up waaaaaay to close so I tap my brakes for sake of lighting the light, not for actual brake action.
Anyone seen convenient bar mounted switch (or reliable & g-force) device that could easily trigger the brake light with to let others know I'm braking?
Yes, I know I can ride the brakes. That is not point. Also I could adjust one or both of them so any movement at all triggers the light but I'd preffer another option.
Think of this as information gathering. . . . If you're technical minded and have some ideas on how to bring this concept full circle - feel free to add something.
Thanks!
