Depends on the ‘bent.  Motorists rarely miss me on my more upright Rans V-Rex. It is one of the taller 2-wheeled recumbents and I’m tall on it.  But when I ride my low racer, an Optima Baron, drivers miss me regularly.  We don’t see what we’re not looking for, and they aren’t looking down that low.  Or a shrub is in the way.  Or their mirror.  I love riding this bike, but I only ride it on country roads.
