Headlight Modulator recommended as hedge against motorcycle accidents

A recent news story featured the use of a headlight modulator as a possible safety device to help prevent motorcycle accidents.  The device alternates the headlight of the motorcycle between normal and bright lights.  Proponents of the device claim that it draws attention from otherwise inattentive car drivers who may have otherwise pulled in front of oncoming motorcycles.Considering the number of times we have written about wrongful death motorcycle accidents caused by the failure of drivers to yield the right of way to a motorcycle, anything that can help draw the attention of a car driver is probably a good thing.
