I ride predictably and defensively in the door zone (or bike lane) in usually cycling specific clothing which is usually high viz but may not be. At night I run one (1) rear taillight (that flashes!) and one (1) headlight (two if in unfamiliar surroundings) and the rest I leave to what many of you might call 'God'.
