AN IDEA FOR CYCLISTS
Discussing an article in yesterday's "Post" which drew attention to the non-observance of the bylaw requiring bicycles to cany a reel rear reflector and to havo. ..their.. .rear, mudguards painted white, a police officer suggested to a "Post" reporter today that the ideal position for tho red reflcetor wa3 on the light-hand heel' of tho eyo.list, after the manner of' a spur. In that position, ho argued, it would bo constantly moved through a wide range of angles and.thus it could not fail to be seen by the overtaking motorist. vA reflector on each heel would b& a double safeguard, and there was no reason why pedestrians should not also be equipped with such- -danger^ preventing devices.
