Thanks again

Bright lights might help, but some motorists aren't going to see anything until it is too late. I used to drive a very large RED Ford Crew cab dually truck with a 14" tall chrome bumper for work. One day sitting in traffic, stopped at a traffic signal some bimbo in a Toyota Corolla plowed into the back of it. She told the police she didn't see the truck there...
Turns out she had her head down texting, good thing it was a 8,000 # truck and not a cyclist or motor cyclist. FWIW I drove away from the wreck, she didn't.
