Night and Day riding:Lights...to Strobe or not to Strobe
I have been commuting 18 miles to work for the past few years now and my lighting has evolved. I ride into work from westchester at about 10 pm and home the next day after work and school at about 11am so my exposure is both at night and day. I am in a city environment, a suburban environment as well as a desolate business environment. In order to insure that I am seen, my lighting is a fenix TK45 at the rear...I usually keep it on strobe and slightly pointed downward. My question....finally!....is I have read that some readers here who drive for a living, say that this is not the best manner of being noticed...my question is why? Both of my lights, front and rear are kept on strobe when I am in traffic areas and so far I have no issue. Don't we want to be seen? Any feedback is appreciated
