Bike Safety at Night

Being seen by drivers, pedestrians, and other bike riders is a key element in bike riding safety. This is particularly important at dusk and at night and in foggy, overcast and rainy weather. Headlights, taillights and reflective leg bands and decals are important safety elements under these conditions. In fact, it's the law in California that you use a headlight when riding your bike at night.
