I don't like the really really bright lights one sometimes sees; they dazzle oncoming traffic so they can't see anything else. I wouldn't want to be the cause of a car hitting a pedestrian they couldn't see because a bright bike light had shut down their iris.
I recently got a new bike headlight; I'm strongly tempted to put masking tape over it when I use it at night.
Oh, which reminds me: studies have shown keeping your sidelights on during the day reduces accidents; I do this with my bike too now.
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
