I use blinking lights in broad daylight. it's just common sense to me.

I've been riding a brakeless track bike in NYC for over a decade now. The issue you raise isn't a brake/track issue, it's an asshole issue. Assholes will ride that way on whatever bike they ride. I'm safe as hell on my bike, I never race on the street, I stop at red lights, stop at stop signs, don't salmon, etc. …

A strobe is definitely better at getting attention from drivers (and other cyclists) than a constant light, particularly with lights as small as one would typically see on a biker (again no science).

Haha. Lovely to see you too. Acclimatise. Metre. Tumour. Colour. Ageing. Aeon. Cancellation. Axe. Valour. Centre. Sulphur. Rumour. Mould. Litre.

Also, to elaborate that. How about you drive your car through a shopping mall. Oh wait, because that's illegal and can kill people? Right, well, riding on the sidewalk is not permitted for cyclists - hence the riding in the streets. Share the roads works both ways. People like you are the cancer of America. …

You're an idiot.
