It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

This reads like paid advertisement... I guess it'd be useful for people with hearing issues, but for the rest of us we can hear cars coming. Also a mirror can help if you want extra insurance, and it costs 20 euros rather than 400 with extra hassle
Hear me out! I got an optical radar device. It works by reflecting ambient light from the approaching vehicles, reflecting it again on an optical surface to then hit my eyes. I can not only judge speed and distance of the vehicle approaching but also size, make, whether the driver already signals they'll pass me etc. And the best? It needs no recharging.
Its a brand new invention and makes radars look like technology from the 90s. I call it a mirror.
Where I ride it’s just a given that there are always cars. Radar would be pointless.
