    So do bikes. It’s just common sense safety for all when on the roads at dusk or night.

        Lights and reflectors are required at night. During the day, they are optional, but highly recommended.

        The second part of your statement is patently false; a visible, predictable bicyclist is safest.

          That has been entirely contrary to my personal experience of twenty years of bicycling. I can’t help but wonder if you’re trying to get bicyclists killed.

            Oh knock off the drama. Like I’ve never ridden or own bikes. Advocating lights and safety equipment isn’t “trying to get bicyclists killed”. What backwards bizarro logic.

            News flash, cars aren’t responsible for your safety; you are. Being proactive is the best advice.

            But go ahead, you do you; wear that camo vest. Lmao.
