Cyclists can take several steps to increase their visibility and reduce the risk of accidents, particularly during low-light conditions:
- Wear bright or fluorescent clothing to stand out against the environment.
- Attach reflective materials to clothing, backpacks, and bicycles to enhance visibility by reflecting light from street lamps and vehicle headlights.
- Use front and rear lights on the bicycle at all times, even during the daytime, to make yourself more visible to drivers from different directions.
- Choose well-lit routes or avoid poorly lit areas to further reduce the risk of accidents.
By prioritising visibility, cyclists can significantly enhance their safety on the road, especially during low-light conditions.
