I personally like to use really really bright LED lights pointed straight into the eyes of oncoming traffic.
Occasionally an oncoming car will take a swipe, or a cyclist will stop and punch me, but it's well worth it for the widespread misery I can effortlessly cause.
It also makes it quite hard to see anything that isn't in my 'cone of death', which is good in the same way that peril-sensitive sunglasses are!
This, but unironically. People can't say they didn't see me.
I knew it!
