How to make myself more visible?

Your route sounds really dangerous. I used to have to drive on a road like that--right into the sun. I couldn't see anything!

Is there anyway you can alter either your route or your time? It just sounds really dangerous and something that a yellow shirt will not solve (although it might help).

I was thinking along those lines. There are stretches of my route that are dangerous at the equinox 'cause the sun comes up directly in front of me... b ut generally since I'm going west in the a.m. and east in the p.m. it's traffic coming the other way that would miss seeing me, which isn't as big a deal. Still, 'round that time I tend to take the long way in.
