Bells or noise making

In NSW it is the law that you have to have a bell or some kind of
similar device.
In the city a bell works best, people tend to ignore you if you just
yell something at them.

Yeah - I know it's law in NSW; not here though (VIC) (AFAIK!).

With my bikes however, it is pointless setting one on, as I normally going a
decent pace, and could not mount one in a position convenient to ring
without adjusting my position in a big way. For my purposes the voice works
well.

Yeah, it is actually law in Vic, but it's just not enforced. Bicycles do
have to be sold with a bell though.

Me too. How hard is it to say "ding ding" anyway?
