Why only cyclists should wear hi-viz in the dark? Cars can too!
stoyTo be fair, cars have headlight and taillights.
Here in Sweden cars are required to allways have their headlights on when the car is moving, making them far easier to see even during the day.
It us frankly one of the most annoying things about crossing the street when being abroad, cars having their headlights off during the day, it is much more difficult to see if a car is moving if it has the headlights turned off, than if they are on.
Whatever law required headlights on totally backfired. Rear lights are off and people don’t realize or don’t care, and now they won’t switch on the actual lights manually because there’s an automation.
IIRC there was onlyba short window when turning the rear lights off was a thing, and they’ve since gone back to cars defaulting to them being on. While there are still people in cars like that, they’re a minority.
