Riders without lights

I've been doing a regular M-W-F morning ride for the past month or so. 20 mile route on Siesta Key and at 0530 it's wonderful. Virtually no cars and I can ride in the middle of the lane. I've moved my average mph up about 2 mph over the past month so I am enjoying the progress.

I've got a red blinker on the back of my helmet and on my tire bag under the seat. My 500 lumen front light lights the way.

There are two guys I regularly see - one always going the opposite direction and another I always pass - that have no lights at all. On Friday the guy I pass was wearing black shorts and a black shirt. It's pitch black outside!

While I want to call out "hey pal, get some lights" I've kept my mouth shut and hope the local cop will stop him.

Should I say something or is this a Ron White 'you can't fix stupid' deal?
