SHOCKING: These road markers could make roads safer for motorcyclists - What They Never Told You

Different road users have different needs, that's just basic math. A car driver, for instance, doesn’t need to worry as much about the surface of the road as compared to a motorcyclist. A car's enclosed cabin, thick insulation, and climate control do a great job of filtering out the harshness of the road.

For motorcyclists, however, we rely on feedback from the bike, as well as a heightened sense of anticipation in all facets of riding. Keeping our heads on a swivel is an essential part of keeping safe on the road. While instilling road safety in individual riders is indeed essential, improving roads to be safer for riders is always a good thing. This is exactly what a project in West Scotland hopes to achieve.
