I was listening to the "Quirks and Quarks" Podcast (CBC Radio) and this little segment sparked my interest. It's definitely worth a read / listen to anyone who cares about riding / driving safely on the street.

The biggest takeaway for me is: See Bike, Say Bike!

This morning I saw a post on social media that suggests changing up the count the ( ____)cars, to count how many motorcycles you see. Hopefully these kids grow up with naturally recognizing motorcycles in traffic as part of their mental "repertoire."
If someone wants to see any images I refer to in posts, first check my gallery here. If no bueno, send me a PM. More than glad to share.
