The clothes a bicyclist wears when out for a nighttime ride may reduce the chance of an unwelcome encounter with an automobile. In other words, the more reflective clothing a rider wears, the better.

Most accidents between motorists and bicyclists at night usually occur because car drivers are unable to see a biker before it's too late. To help reduce the chance of a nighttime biking accident, cyclists should always consider the following before going out for a ride:

— Make sure the bike has the reflectors required on all new bicycles. Each bike should have front and rear reflectors, pedal reflectors, and side rim or wheel reflectors. Use front and rear lights to help make your bicycle more noticeable to cars at night. Small battery-operated lamps strapped to your legs also help.
