  • I go against the grain regarding lights when road running in the dark especially on roads and in neighborhoods.

    I don’t think wearing something that lights up is all that safe. I much prefer a reflective vest for the purpose that cars can see you. That’s what really matters.

    A headlamp can also blind an oncoming car so I don’t consider that safe.

    And a softer, indirect light like the Noxgear stuff or small blinking lights really advertises your presence to people (not vehicles) who maybe you don’t want to notice you that much.

    I wear reflective gear for the cars and avoid putting lights on myself. I think that’s safer.
