    Is there a gadget available today and that can sense oncoming traffic from blind corner? With radar detector and other technology, how can we not be able to detect a big massive piece of metal coming around the corner? Riding in the canyon can be dangerous when vehicles are passing others in a blind corner. It would be very useful if some sort of electronic device can sense an oncoming vehicle so we can can be better prepared on the blind corner.

    There’s a biological processor located right behind your eyes but it is limited by the properties of light, amongst other things.

    Ride at a speed that you can stop in the distance you can see to be clear is a good mantra to remember.

    If you had such a blind corner detector and relied on it you can bet your bottom dollar that it would go belly up the one time that it was needed

    I agree 100%, there just might be that one time where you have two guys racing taking a both lanes and there's not a whole lot that can be done. That's my biggest fear. Or these roads that I travel are not very populated so they make the assumption that it's empty as well and are going down the middle of the lane

    Try flying a helicopter and throw the bike away if it’s that bad?
