Make some lateral movements

The human eye struggles to perceive a small object coming towards it in a straight line, whereas moving from side to side greatly increases the chance of the eye picking it up.

Do this

Use the whole ‘safe’ three quarters of your carriageway – it makes you far more visible to fellow motorists.

Don’t do this

Leave the responsibility with the driver to see you.
