The Motorcycle Safety Foundation course really hammers that in - YOU are ultimately responsible for accident avoidance, regardless who's right or wrong. Because, YOU will always lose. I quit riding bicycles (on the road) years ago, because too many friends got hit. And worse, the culprit just drove away. Now many wear a GoPro, in hopes to get a license number and video witness to use in court. Hi viz is good, and may save your life. I'd stay away from flat black, OD green, and camo paint schemes.
