An apparatus and method are presented which are used by operators of trail
vehicles to share information with each other about the number of
vehicles in their group of trail users. A display module attached to a
vehicle displays a number which indicates how many vehicles are in that
vehicle's party. As oncoming trail users pass each other, they can read
the value of the displayed numeral and know instantly how many vehicles
to expect before the path is clear of traffic. The display module
projects a number which is changeable, user determined, and has optical
properties that allow the drivers of passing vehicles to readily convey
information to each other.
