I read recently in the local paper that yet another cyclist was struck whilst riding in the dark wearing dark-coloured clothing and without any lights or reflectors mounted on the bicycle.
I really feel sorry for the bicyclist's family and especially the truck driver who most likely never even saw the bicyclist.
I wonder if writing a letter to the paper imploring people to make more effort to be visible to other road users at night would help any?
Another tragic accident that may well have been prevented with even very basic ligting on the bicycle.
