The law doesn't require peds to carry/use lights. Bicycles, it does. We
fight to be treated like other vehicles. Why don't we then obey the laws
we are bound to? Feel free to lobby to have peds required to carry lights.
And Jeff, yes I have seen people ticketed for lights, but not around here.
In Palo Alto, at STanford U. I have heard of UW students being stopped,
but never ticketed.

I'm all for giving people a hard time if they don't have lights on their
bikes. Lights are cheap and plentiful, what's the problem? I've had too
many
near bike-on-bike collisions due to bikers in the dark (especially on the
very dark Southwest Bike Path). Have at 'em, I say!

Pedestrians also walk the Southwest Bike Path during the dead of night,
99% of them not carrying a light. Ideally, they should have lights, too.
