RSA should push for legislation on lights

THE Rules of the Road claims that pedestrians are “extremely difficult to see”, but makes no such claim for cars.

They are bigger, but move a lot faster and sometimes camouflage against the background, especially, in falling rain, twilight, mist or in overcast conditions.

Most motorists have an aversion to turning on their lights unless it is pitch black; the prudent motorist keeps his headlights on permanently.
