My commute of late has been rainy and windy and I am so happy. I make myself hyper visible and drivers have been giving me a lot of space it has been great. I did get a close-ish pass by a truck but I realized he was trying not to sideswipe the Honda fit that was creeping towards him in the left lane.

I notice at least one cyclist a night with wholly inadequate lights. And usually along a dark stretch where cars drive faster than they should. I have seen one guy whom I have told several times his light is useless and he is almost invisible. Last night a guy has a backpack on that was blocking the tiny light near his left ear on his helmet. His helmet was high visible yellow but I didn't see it until I was even with him due to his pack.

They are always surprised when I tell them they are invisible and I am looking for them specifically as cyclist, so imagine a distracted driver.
