BSMARTThis invention is a spin-off of the “three-foot passing law,” which requires car drivers to give cyclists at least three-feet of clearance when passing them. This invention came out of frustration with poor enforcement of the three-foot-passing-law. BSMART is a handlebar-mounted device that uses ultrasonic waves to measure the distance between passing vehicles and the bike, and the distance is shown on a display. Paired with a GoPro camera the device records the space between the bike and the passing vehicle, and if a vehicle is closer than three-feet, BSMART beeps and alerts an officer to the violation, thus facilitating the enforcement of the “three-foot passing law.”
