    I recommend getting some bright lights. I have a 350 lumens rear light that makes my bike more visible than most vehicles.

      Switch to using an ebike this year, so it has its built in light, I have another rear light that blinks (not very bright and turned so its not directly facing drivers), and recently got a helmet with a front and rear light. Also wear bright clothes and have reflective stickers on my bike and stripes on pannier. I still don’t trust some of the cars given passing in-lane is the only option for them to pass and the lane is too narrow for that.

        In this case the correct thing to do legally is to take the whole lane, but I get that having cars honking at you is stressful.
