[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bike, but please do not wear all black with no reflective gear or good/ prominent lighting on bike. Same goes for people who walk in all black with no reflective gear and they just pop out of nowhere. And it doesn’t matter where the location is.[/quote] People don't "pop out of nowhere", except in the perceptions of people who are driving too fast for the conditions. The faster you drive, the more your peripheral vision narrows. And you also need to drive more slowly at night. [/quote] The same also applies to cyclists, who have longer breaking distance than cars going the same speed which means that they should be even more careful.[/quote] Absolutely. Everybody (bicyclists and drivers) should limit their speeds to 12 mph or less at night.[/quote]
